Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

I recently was running out of HD space, so I de;eted some videos. I went to iMovie to play a projetc, and it says that the source clip is missing. What does this mean and how can I fix it?

Can you please help me?

If you deleted the Event video, then projects that used video from that Event will no longer play. The project does not contain any video. It references the video in an Event.
If you have not emptied your trash, you may be able to retrieve the Event folder from the trash.
Similarly, if you are running TIme Machine, you may be able to retrieve a copy there.
Or if you have a backup disk, you can get it there.

HT1414 My email account on my i phone will not allow me to enter new password. Each time my phone says that the yahoo server is unavailable. What is the problem so that I can once again get my email on my phone?

My iphone will not accept my new password for my email account. It keeps saying that the yahoo server is unavailable. what is the problem and how can I get my phone to accept m;y new password so I can once again get my mail on my phone?

This may work, try deleting the Yahoo email account from your phone and then re-add it, using your new Yahoo password.
If that doesn't work, log into your Yahoo account from a computer and double-check that you are entering the correct password. Also, your password may be case sensitive, so enter it into your iPhone the exact the same way you created it.
Let us know what happens!

The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

TS1503 when syncing my ipad I get the message 'iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad "..." because the apps installed on the ipad could not be determined'; what does this mean?

when syncing my ipad I get the message 'iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad "..." because the apps installed on the ipad could not be determined'; what does this mean?

I'm pretty sure it's a bug in either iOS 6 or iTunes 10.7. I kept getting it until I quit iTunes and re-ran it again. I then started sync from the iPad itself.

Trying to burn data on a CD-R disk, but then I get a window that says, "Burning failed" , and that one of the volumes on the disc is still in use", so what does this mean? Not sure what they mean by volume still in use, this apparentely is keeping me from burning info such a pictures and or video's, how can I fix this?

You have a disc inside your optical drive.

Remove the extra disc.
My answers are basic because:
You never told us which model iMac you have?
How you are burning? Through iMac? External burner?
Which OS you are currently using?

In iphoto I get the mesage "The volume for [picture] cannot be found" What does this mean? I can see the pictures

iphoto message is "The volume for this photo cannot be found." I can see the pictures but cannot move them?

The "volume" is referring to the picture's location, i.e. hard drive, etc. In any case there is an iPhoto forum where those experts are. Post there.

Every time I download a PDF I get a message that says There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now close. What does this mean?

I work on a Power Mac G5 running OSX 10.5.8.
We recently had to upgrade Java.
Now every time I download a PDF I get the message "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now close."
I downloads the PDF OK, but then Safari closes and I have to start it back up to get to my email.
What is the message telling me? It did not do this before we upgraded Java.

I'm having the same issue. Again, unfortunately. And of course you will find through various searches that it is a reoccurring issue, one that Adobe seems to have failed to acknowledge.
You can delete your preference files. Same thing. RAISE blah blah crash.
You can even go and do a restore from an uncorrupted backup from over 4 months ago, and yet it still doesn't solve the problem, thus there is a compatibility issue.
The program is battling with another program (of which there really is no telling) and therefore crashing the moment you open it. The software itself is clean and uncorrupted, yet somewhere deep within OSX there is a problem that won't allow the software to open.
The only temporary solution i've found to solve the problem is a clean adobe install. Just delete and uninstall all and any traces of Adobe Acrobat, then reinstall to find a working adobe product. For a small while, at least.
I've never tried creating a new account, but from what others say it works. Not worth my time though.
If anyone was wondering I have zero third party plugins. Its straight from Adobe CS4. Pro version.
Someone above mentioned using the drop down menu in acrobat to reset the software. I can't even do that! The "RAISE" window pops up before that actual software! Its ridiculous!
Its really quite peeving to know that this issue has been around for years and Adobe seems to just ignore it. I know I don't want to pay for a company that fails to meet their customers needs. This is your problem Adobe, not ours to deal with. Fix It.
