HUGE PROBLEM, NEED ASSISTANCE PLEASE

So I wanted to completely erase my drive; I backed up my drive first, and when I was ready, I went into Recovery Mode via command-r on restart. I went into Disk Utility, selected the partition, and hit Erase. A message popped up saying that the disk was encrypted (which it was, I used FileVault) and I entered my password, and then some error message popped up and my partition just vanished. I assumed that I had erased the partition like I wanted, but then when I clicked on the drive to create a new Partition, it reads, "This partition contains a locked disk and can not be resized until it is unlocked." I can't do anything with the drive now...
When I restart, it brings me to the login screen (the one after you encrypt your drive with FileVault). When I type my password in, it starts to boot, but then the Apple logo turns into a "Do Not Enter" symbol. I go back into Recovery Mode and nothing changed...
I did some searching around and I read that there is a way to manually unlock the drive through Terminal in Recovery Mode. I did EXACTLY as the steps explained...
1. Type in: diskutil coreStorage list
2. Copy the UUID
3. Type in: diskutil coreStorage unlockVolume xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
But then I get a line that reads something like, "This is not a logical storage UUID"
I've search around but I can't find any solutions... what can I do!
Help would be VERY MUCH appreciated!!!

The option to upload a picture doesn't appear on my iPhone, I'll just have to describe it as best as I can for now...
So there's the Disk Utility window, right? On the left side of the window there's the sidebar, in the side bar there are the items "Macintosh HD" "SuperDrive" Then a dividing line... "disk1" and a subitem called "Mac OS X Base System"
Unter "Macintosh HD" and on the Parition tab everything is greyed out. Unter partition Layout: the drop down menu is greyed out. The big partion window is greyed out, but it says, "Macintosh HD" in the center. Under that are the "+" and "-" buttons and "Options..." are all greyed out.
Under Partition Information, the Name "Macintosh HD" is greyed out. Format "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" is greyed out. Size: "255.2 GB" is greyed out
I have a DVD and a USB with Mountain Lion on it. I also have a USB with Disk Recovery Assistant. Would either of those help?

Need assistance converting PDF documents back to Word format, have adobe Reader 11.0.10 will this work and directions please

Sadly no. And strange thing is that only this pdf file have problem with saving sigh...even if I told him to send again still can't save this file...my classmate doesn't have this problem :I for this pdf...but only me specifically on this pdf...it go cray cray (crazy)

Minor problem? Need assistance please.

Has anyone else ran into this? and if so, do I need to worry?
I ran my usual check on the mac drive via "Verify Disk" option. It came up with "needs repair"...etc., and told me to repair it. I did a command r during boot so I could do a repair, and the software told me "your mac drive seems to be ok"??? Some kind of glitch, or need I worry about it at all? Thanks for any assist.

Ok, I'm a little confused, please explain if you would. The way I look at this is I basically received faulse readings from "disk utility's "verify disk"" because when I followed procedure afterwards, which everyone knows is to use the installation cd to run "repair disk", it told me everything was ok (or in essence there wasn't anything wrong at all). This is normal? This makes no sense to me, can you please explain it, or point me to an Apple support article explaining it? Thank you sir for your time.

Hp Pacilion p6110f video problem, need suggestion please.

That is the model of the desktop I currently have. The problem I am having is when I try to edit hd video in Adobe Premiere the uncompressed file just lags in the source monitor, sometimes it won't play at all. I've been told to try and upgrade the graphics card but all the graphics cards require a bigger power source which now means I have to replace the power supply. Another person had said to change the graphics cards and add another internal harddrive. I don't know what kind of harddrive I need or will work and which graphics card would be the best. Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob

Hello Bob
I believe what you have been told is accurate.
If your video card is not powerful enough to play HD video then you can experience monitor lag or the video not playing at all. Unless you have changed you video card, your computer has an integrated Intel GMA 3100 which is not meant for playing HD video. As such playing HD content may work, but only if the processor can pick up the huge slack. Getting a new video card would be the best choice, however, as you stated, a new graphic card will need a larger power source. Even the cheapest low end cards on the market (currently) suggest a 300Watt power supply (yours is a 250Watt).
The idea that a new hard drive might work is iffy. If you get a faster drive than you currently have, yes the data can be read faster, but if the CPU and video card can't process it fast enough it is useless.
I have another question, what operating system are you running and are you editing uncompressed 720p or 1080p?
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.

Serius project problems - Need help please

Hi,
I'm using adobe premiere and after effects to my last film (this is not the first time). I'm using DV 1280*720 default sound settings (as I did before in other movies). I have an Imac C2D and plenty of hard disk space.
Yesterday when I import new takes and done some light fx's (blur 10% and tint) when I saved the premiere frozen for 30 minutes and then I had to force quit.
When I've tried to open that project again, it just don't open. I've tried everything. See if there was any corrupted file, checked for Hard drive problem (it doesn't have any) and I delete the previous rendered files (as I saw on some tutorial).
At least I could recover that project using autosaved and previous project backup (I take care always of saving backups).
But when I saved again (the new recovered and rendered project) it freezes on quit and there comes again. (it seems that premiere it is getting something from the old(damaged) project and just stack there !!!!!!
The project then it just don't open (I don't see any error message) I just see after 1 hour my premiere freezed and there is no way to see the timeline to fix anything.
I assume that I have to recover again and to all work over and over. I saw some forums talking about adobe "broken links" something related to video files source and corrupted files, but I still don't get it (since premiere doesn't tells me what is going wrong!!!!!!). They talk about deleting MACC file on windows but I'm on a mac. I didn't saw any tutorial about recovering.
whe this thing happens I see my timeline with video and audio. I can render but when I quit the program doesn't load the project again.
Please any help...... I'm working since a month ago on this movie and I need to deleiver that asap.
Is it better to export the video in parts and them join in a new project or there is any other thing that I can do without missing my month of work.
ohhh man I just want to scream

For any reason that I can't explain when I arrived home after day work, I've tried last time before looking my backups and Premiere loaded my project
Before save and quit I've take a look in all file (check the link and where is the source) I found 2 still frames (photos) were lost ( i mean from my hard drive).
My biggest clue now it is, when I deleted some video file before, when I enter the premiere project 1st thing that show it is a windows asking me to "point" where is that file.
But when happens with a photo, premiere doesn't say that this files are lost. It just stucks your project. Any tip to prevent this again?

Huge problems...please help

My iPod won't reset or charge or connect to my computer. So I can't charge it up or delete my songs. But when I did try to charge my iPod earlier it was beeping at me and the 'do not disconnect' sign and logos were all in black
and white.
Please help because I haven't got a clue what's going on!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try connecting it to an AC adapter and resetting it...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
See if you connect it to the computer and open the iPod updater what happens. Can you restore...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
The beeping could signify a harddrive problem so the iPod may need repair. First check out this link though...

Here is how to send it in for repair...

Huge problem with battery: PLEASE HELP!

Please when you read this try to help, responses are appreciated.
I have an iPod radio/clock/charger combo and for a while it has been working to charge and play. Just recently, as I disconnected the iPod to take it with me I noticed that as soon as I turned it on and the menu popped up the battery instantly drained and said "No battery remains. Please connect to iPod power source." So, I left it alone for about and hour and a half and tried again. This time the menu popped up and I could shuffle the songs but as soon as I pushed the next button it drained and I recived the message again. When I got home, I connected it to my computer and let it charge all night and the next day. I have been trying everyday but it seems as soon as I push two buttons it drains the battery. I have looked up topics and I get things like turning off the EQ, blacklight, and when not in use holding the play button. I do all of these things and I don't leave it in heat or extreme cold. Some of the topics suggested purchasing a new battery but the consequense of losing all playlists and songs is alarming to me. My iPod is completly full and I DO NOT want to add the all back. Yes, I have them backed up. It WILL play and charge on the docking station and the cord to the computer.
Is there any other ways out there for me to fix this problem?
Should I download the 7.1 version of iTunes?
Is it because I use Limewire in addition to iTunes?
Please help me, I will be needing my iPod soon on my NYC trip.
Thank you!

Step One: Did you try doing a RESET on the iPod to see if that helps?
When connected to a power source, are you able to use the iPod, navigate the menus, play tunes?
In the meantime, you might try the diagnostics menu on the iPod (while plugged in of course). I forget what is in that menu, but you do a reset and as the iPod starts up with the Apple logo screen, push and hold the center and left (back) buttons at the same time. It should dump you into a diagnostic menu and you can either run automatically through the tests or manually pick which tests.
If you get stuck in any menu or test, you can always dump out by holding down the center and menu buttons again to do another reset.

Setup Problem - Need Help Please!!

My problem is a low hum eminating from my speakers every time I connect my MPC2000 sampler to my audio interface.
My setup consists of the MPC2000, a Dj Mixer, and my laptop which has an M-Audio interface which I use to connect the mixer & MPC. Basically, as soon as I remove the cables that connect my MPC or my mixer to my interface, the hum stops. I've tried different cables, new cables, a ground adapter for the MPC to change it to 2 prong, and nothing helps. The only thing that DOESN'T cause this hum when plugged into my interface, is my keyboard, so i'm quite sure the interface itself isn't the problem.
Does anyone know what might be causing this interference that's resulting in a hum? I have exhausted all my own theories and am desperate for some sort of help! Many thanks in advance!!!

Hi beirut,
Try the following:
1.Put the mpc2000,the dj mixer and your computer all in the same power outlet from the wall.
2.Go to home despot and buy a few gray-colored ground lift plugs (they must be gray)
3.With these gray ground lift plugs,lift the MPC2000.test the system.No hum=solved problem.hum still there or different,list the DJ mixer.
4.Is your DJ mixer hooked up to turntables? If so,you need to ground the turntables to a proper ground.Good turntables have a little wire coming out of them,just for that purpose.
5.Try turning off any TVs,refridgerators,fluorescent lighting(the ones that look like office lights),and other things around your place,and see if the hum goes away.
6.Try using a DI box for your DJ mixer,to plug it in to the DI,and then out to the audio interface.
7.And Most Importantly... RUN AND BUY A DIFFERENT BRAND OF AUDIO INTERFACE!!!!!!!!!! M-Audio...yucky yucky yucky!!!
Cheers

C6-00 email account problems, need help please..

Hi all. First of all, I don't experience any issues with the email accounts as referred to in other posts here. I do however have one problem and would appreciate if someone could explain a work-around for the issue. I'm desperately trying to set up a Gmail account using IMAP protocol but that allows me to access all advanced settings and not the ones pre-defined by the Nokia software. I'm basically wanting to have the same control I have over non pre-configured email provider accounts, download limits in KB, constantly connected when i have the mailbox open, choosing what folders to sync or not, etc.
I did manage to have a Gmail account configured this way by mistake. When i set up the account it gave an error informing me of that i could try to continue with "alternative settings without the Nokia personalization" sort of (don't remember really the message) and after accepting to continue the account was created with "standard IMAP" settings.
I'm however unable to re-create the event and simply cannot create a Gmail account with those settings. Even tried to set up another existing account and then edit definitions to Gmail but the personalized settings are always taking priority.
Any advises please? Thanks alot in advance and best regards!
Fredrik
P.s. Sorry for double post. Mozilla Firefox messed up my 1st post

Same problem here, but with error -2096. Can connect fine on same network with an iPod Touch and a Macbbook, but the Mac Mini that normally connects to iTunes just won't connect. Not using multiple accounts, uninstalled iTunes 8, reinstalled 7 - no joy. Uninstalled 7 reinstalled 8, no joy. Updated 8 to 8.01, no joy. Tried putting the Mini into a DMZ on the router, still no good. Sent an email to Apple support who will needless to say tell me to reinstall iTunes 8......
Not working for me as of 10/10/08.

WRT54G huge problem NEED HELP! FAST!

I puchashed my WRT54G router about two weeks ago and connected it to my network and connected my xbox and xbox live to it. i noticed the live wasn'tworking as well as it should and found that i needed to open some NAT ports and update my firmware. While updating my firmware the interet page expired and i'd assume it didn't update, then i lost connection to live and the internet. It said on linksys advisor that the network had changed. So i tired to reinstall the router and it would'nt work. i made sure all the plugs were in the correct spot also, and even tried resetting the router but still no dice, and the big problem is i can't even view the router on that i.p website thing!!

u need to just plug in ur router to computer , uninstall the easy link(wont be of any gud in verizon connection ,and its buggy as well ).
once router is connected to computer from port no.1.2.3or 4 ..any one .
Push the reset button on router for 30 seconds ..den unplug the power cable and plug in the power cable after 20 seconds.
then try to log into the routers web user interface - 192.168.1.1
see if it opens?
if yes
then ull find A local ip address option there- change it to - 192.168.7.1
and save settings .after saving the settings u might again kicked off from internet or set up web user interface.

I have a 8gb A1288 (2nd Gen) ipod touch having huge problem during update, please help

I have a 8gb A1288 (2nd Gen) ipod that has been working fine till now. The device asked for a software update and downloaded the necessary software. During the update process; however, something happened and the computer started not recognizing the device now. On the device screen there is a symbol asking for me to connect the cable to itunes but even if I connect it to the computer, the device is not recognized. Resetting the device didn't solve the problem. Could you please help?

Hello!
Tried DFU mode? This stands for Device Firmware Update and/or Download Firmware Upgrade.
This is how to put your device into DFU:
1. Connect to A computer with iTunes open, Turn off (Whilst still connected)
2. Hold Home + Sleep/wake together for 10 seconds.
3. Let go of sleep wake BUT keep holding home for 10 seconds.
This shoould result in a message on your PC/Mac screen. Follow the steps and it should work. Let me know of the results.

Let me warn you up front: never mark your questions as urgent. People really don't care how urgent it is to you, and will likely only irritate them enough to not want to help you. Lucky for you, I couldn't care less ;)
you seem to want to get an uploaded file using FileUpload. Did you see the user guide on how to do this? You seem to be going about it in completely the wrong way.
[FileUpload user guide|http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/using.html]
Also:
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("C:/Documents and Settings/Andrew Hobbs/Desktop/helloworld.txt");Hardcoded paths in your code? Not very portable is it. I would define paths in a properties file. Read this:

Hotel management software for mac - need assistance PLEASE read..

hello everyone! thanks for taking the time to read this. I am managing hotels and they requested going via computer compared to hands-on. what programs do you recommend for the hotel management software when one does a reservation online to send a notice and when guests check-in?
also, does anyone recommend a good GDS type program to have customers do online reservations via my website and to help advertise it? thank you again!
p.s. this is for MAC only - not PC. thank you..

For any online activity, personally I would have a customized application written in something like PHP (for scalability instead of being fixed and needed eventual upgrades as in ASP or dotNet).
Perhaps you can search at cnet for a review. I do not know of any specific software for hotel/rest management for Mac, but I'm sure there are commercial programs of some sort that could be repurposed.

Strange iChat problem, need assistance.

Since My girlfriend had a system and a quicktime update somewhere last 2 weeks, we have a problem with the videochat.
Her system is Leopard version: 10.5.6 and quicktime version 7.5.7
My system is Tiger version: 10.4.11 and quicktimepro version 7.5.5
We do not have connectionproblems but I do not recieve her video, only the sound.
She does see and hear me, but I do only see myself.
It looks like I only see my mini display, normaly placed in the display where you see the the one you are chatting with.
When I do a full screen, I only see myself also.
On the connection infoscreen, we both have a 100 % audio and video.
We both are on a wireless router but this was so when it worked, and nothing changed there.
We went through all the ports and firewall settings found in this forum about connection problems and set it accordingly, although it does'nt really aply to
our problem.
Before it worked without any settings changed.
I do think that the problem is on her side, because I did not have any updates since.
And also, because of this problem, we are forced to switche to skype, and her camera was'nt recognised at first, and it took a view tricks to make it work.
But her camera is working fine it seems.
The only thing not done yet, is deleting iChat preference files or so.
Does anybody know what to do ?

Hi
First have you both set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to 500.
Restart iChat.
