I can't get this video off of my iPhone
I recently rented Unforgiven (less than great acting but beautiful character arc!) but when I went to put it on my phone, it stopped at the very end of the process. An error message was displayed saying that the transfer had failed. I figured this wouldn't be a big problem; I'd just try it again. The issue, I discovered, was really that it really had transferred the data, but failed to identify it as a video. Now I have over a Gig of memory being wasted in the 'Other' category and can't seem to find a way to rid myself of it without deleting all my other information. Is it possible to rid myself of this unusable data without also riding myself of my copious notes and bookmarks?
iTunes creates and maintains a backup of your iPhone, which stores the following data; your iPhone settings, SMS messages, notes created with the Notes application, cites tracked with the Weather widget, stocks tracked with the Stocks widget, recent calls, call favorites, visual voicemail, photos captured by your iPhone - but I wouldn't depend on this one. Photos captured by your iPhone should be imported to your computer just as with any other digital camera. Basically, the backup stores all data not included with the iTunes sync process.
Your iPhone's backup is updated during the sync process is any of this data has changes since the last sync - as the very first step during the sync process.
iTunes content, photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone, contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks should remain on your computer.
The only way to fix this particular problem is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes. Be sure to sync your iPhone with iTunes immediately before restoring to update your iPhone's backup if needed, and import any photos that were captured by your iPhone to your computer.
The restore process completely erases your iPhone, and then re-installs the current firmware version, which is 1.1.4. After firmware 1.1.4 is re-installed, you will be prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup - which is the default. After your iPhone is restored from your iPhone's backup, this must be followed by a sync to transfer your selected iTunes content, contact information, calendar events, bookmarks, and photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone if any.

Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4...
My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. No Backup anywhere : (
If I choose to sync it tells me all of the Content that does not match the iTunes library on the computer will be erased, do you want to proceed & I have to say no.
How do I replace the music library on my Computer with the Music on the iPhone?
I got my pictures off because you can access them when you connect the iPhone using Windows 7 but you cannot see any of the music so you cannot access it when using windows so don't know what to do...
Help...The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer. -
How do I get this music off of my iPhone?
I keep trying and trying to delete all my music off my phone and it won't delete. When I go to General>Usage>Music and try to delete it from there, it doesn't delete. On iTunes, I have "manually manage music and videos selected" but that doesn't help. When I click "Music" under the name of my device, only 4 songs show up (all of which are greyed out) and I have hundreds. I don't want to delete the songs from my library just so they'll be off my phone. I want to keep the songs in my iTunes library, I just want them off my phone. I don't know how to get this music off and it's making me really angry. Please help!
Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want to be on the iphone, sync

That's unfortunate. Go to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ and leave Apple feedback about iOS 7. -
I had my hard drive crash on the computer that my Iphone 4s was backed up to. I bought a new Iphone 5 and computer and I want the songs on my Iphone 4s on my iphone 5. My library is empty but my old phone still has all my songs. How can I get them? Would iMatch return all of my songs?
Hey susanneyes,
Sounds like you want to set up Firefox Sync. This will allow you to keep all of your instances of Firefox synchronized. Just follow the steps in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/what-firefox-sync?s=sync&r=0&as=s this article] and you'll be set.
Hopefully this helps! -

Are you sure it is all links as opposed to only visited, no-follow links, or unvisited links
http://www.lancelhoff.com/how-to-detect-relnofollow-using-firefox/
Some searches to check out with Google to help you identify the culprit
site:userstyles.org/styles/ -inurl:browse links strike OR strike-out OR cross-out
site:addons.mozilla.com -inurl:collection links strike OR strike-out OR cross-out
another reason might be that Mozilla and Google use colors that make
marking links as visited/unvisited difficult to see.

Can anyone get this video to play?
Because I can't on my Mac. The advertisement plays, and then the actual video never plays. The first time the flash player interface took forever to load, but no video. The second time, after the advertisement (which always plays perfectly, natch), the player loaded right up, but still no video.
http://www.askmen.com/videos/lonely-planet/san-francisco-hustle.htmlThanks. I got one of the other videos to play, but badly. The video played for like 30 seconds only partly revealed in a small square in the upper left corner of the player window, before fully revealing the whole picture.
Funny how the advertisements play flawlessly every time though. -
Please answer my question, I really need my iPod Touch back.
First try a reset:
Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
If that doesn't work, try a restore again. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 -
I downloaded a .zip file. It ate up my space and i cant find the file. How can i get this file off my phone?
Not possible. Safari won't download and save a Zip file. You either had to use a 3rd party app, or as wjosten suggests, your phone is jailbroken. If the former, you'll need to use that app to find it. If the latter, you'll have to look elsewhere for assistance.

I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do? How can I get the data off this disc? I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?
Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive. Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.

Topic: Microsoft's Silverlight for Mac. I wanted to video stream a movie via Verizon FIOS. It demanded Silverlight.dmg. Macbok Pro refused to download from 3rd party supplier (CNET). How can I get this from Apple? The Verizon FIOS video website was churning on the error message, "Checking device registration status." It got stuck in a loop. Verizon tech support never came on. Was on terminal "Hold." Any recommendations?
Never download anything from CNET. The site is untrustworthy and is known to distribute Windows spyware intentionally.

My IPod it telling me to restore factory settings. I know this will cause me to lose all of the music on it so far. How can I get the music off of it before I restore the settings? I really do not want to lose thousands of songs.
What is telling you that and what is the wording?
Can you make a backup via iTunes:
iOS: How to back up
Can you transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
If not then there is nothing you can do except restore the iPod and thus erase the iPod. -
How can I get this function to fire off last?
In the following code, there are two buttons on the stage- "button1" and "button2".
I want to get the buttons to change frames and THEN have the "playerChange" function fire off.
Currently, the "playerChange" function fires first. Moving the function either renders the code inoperable or
returns error messages.
function buttonChange (e:MouseEvent)
{if
(e.target.currentFrame == "frame1" )
if (e.target==button1) (playerChange)
(e.target.gotoAndStop(player.currentFrame + 1))
else{player.gotoAndStop(player.currentFrame)
if (e.target==button2) (playerChange)
(e.target.gotoAndStop(player.currentFrame + 1))
else{player2.gotoAndStop(player2.currentFrame)
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonChange );
button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonChange);
Note:this is an abridged version of the code. The code I'm actually using uses 20 buttons and about 8 conditionals for each button, so e.target is more convenient than writing a command for each button.
the code is very hard to understand
it's badly formatted
{}'s don't match
you aren't calling a playerChange function
this is my guess at something that might work for you
function buttonChange (e:MouseEvent)
if(e.target.currentFrame == "frame1" )
if (e.target == button1)
e.target.gotoAndStop(player.currentFrame + 1);
playerChange();
else
player.gotoAndStop(player.currentFrame);
if (e.target == button2)
e.target.gotoAndStop(player.currentFrame + 1);
playerChange();
else
player2.gotoAndStop(player2.currentFrame)
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonChange );
button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonChange);
