I have a problem, I need some help.

So, tonight I decided to update my iPod, the new iOS 4.2.1 (which is as high as my iTouch allows me to go) was looking pretty good by now. So I did. But once my comp. was done updating both my computer software for itunes + my ipod, I required me to restart my computer. After going through all points when I finally tried to connect back to itunes. The iPod was not the same name as I had it and continues to show up as iPod touch instead of my iPod name. Now it won't alow me to backup my data. My original account is still there it just wont connect my account to the newly updated iPod.
Please help.

  • I can't access the internet with Firefox on my computer (Windows 7 PC). I have used Firefox as my browser for 1 year but 5 days ago it stopped working even though Internet Explorer worked fine. I can't solve the problem and need some help.Randy Brown

    September 26, 2011
    Dear Mozilla,
    I am having some difficulty accessing the internet with Firefox on one of my PC computers. I normally use Mozilla Firefox as my web browser and google is my homepage and gmail is my email system. The operating system is Windows 7. For over a year this system worked perfectly but a few days ago it stopped working. When I launch Firefox now I get the message that that website (www.google.com) is unavailable. In fact, I can’t access any website and I am blocked from the internet entirely within Firefox. My internet connection is fine because Internet Explorer works fine. I can access google and any other website within that web browser. I have investigated all the security issue I can manage and found no smoking gun. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox to no avail. Is Windows 7 compromising the effectiveness of Firefox? Any suggestions or other assistance you can offer would be appreciated.
    Sincerely,

  • I am have permission problems and need urgent help!

    I am running ppc G5 dual 2gig with Tiger 10.4.11. I must say that ever since I upgraded to this version from 10.4.10 my system somehow has been behaving poorly. Ist my network settings went weird in the fact that the PC (running XP service Pack 2) stopped communicating with the G5 saying that it had no access permissions.
    At the time I had Michael Horns SharePoints programme on the mac handling which hard drives I wanted to share over my network. I eventually took this off as I thought this might be the problem.
    I went back to my Network set up on the G5 which had been working previously and tried the network setup Diagnostic tool which told me that from the G5 end it could see the PC and the internet through my BT Broad band Voyager 220V.
    At this point I clicked the pad lock icon to save the settings. Now when I want to go back in to change the settings I can't. For the simple reason that it won't respond to the password or my Name. I have tried changing the password in the Accounts section of my system Preferences it allows me to seemingly do this but tells me that as my Key chain is locked it wants my current Password and Name which it is not responding to so I am going round in circles.
    As a last desperate attempt I logged out and rebooted using my Tiger System disk, went into the Change the password section and did so. There it appeared like it was allowing me to change the password at which point to be extra safe I repaired the permissions on my home drive which again said it was repairing the permissions to the new user name and password so I thought at this point I was going to be all right after it gave me the green light to tell me that my permissions and disk verification were ok. I rebooted my mac and went into my system prefs, tried to open the padlock in the network settings as before only to come across the same problems.
    Something is corrupt i guess. Do I need to reload Tiger and if so anything in the reloading part of the process which asks me for my name and password is going to screw me up as I am afraid the system won't accept it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ! And Many Thanks ahead of time.

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • I have a Question, I need some help Please!!!! Anyone??

    Ok let me first thank you by taking thr the time to help me. I have a question that seems like it should be simple enough but i just can't figure it out. I'm relatively new to InDesign and I own a small print advertising company. I'm trying to design a flier for a client and I need to put his logo on the page but when I insert it I can't get the white background of the box to go away. I just want to logo, it's an odd shape and I used a photo editing program call GIMP to take it from another advertisment he had and cut it out. I thought it was cut out perfectly, but when I saved it and moved to InDesign I just could figure out how to get rid of the box. It should be simple and I think I am just missing a step or a feature, but I am still learning the program. Please help me. The online guide just confuses me.

    I've never used GIMP, but I suspect you haven't save this with a transparent background. What file format did you use? Does the background appear transparent or white in GIMP?
    All of that aside, 99% of the time logos are vector illustrations, not raster images, and what you have will have severly degraded quality when it goes to print. You should ask the client to supply the original logo artwork.

  • Apple iRig, does any1 have it? I need some help? :)

    hello i just bought the iRig and i wanna start recording my voice over the songs, can some1 tell me how to? i've downloaded the apps and all, but i cant figure out how to import a song and play it while i record... so these are my questions:
    1- how do i import a song and get rid of the original vocals?
    2- how and where do I save it once it's recorded?
    3- the apps ask me to register the product, how do i do that?
    THANKS A LOT!!!!!!!!!!

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled or the iPod been completely restored). 
    If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police in case someone turns it in, and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.

  • My airport problem has returned big time --Need some Help!!

    Aloha once again:
    I though that this was fixed by simply changing channels on my airport router, but that fix only lasted for a few days, but now it's back and even worse. Let me give you some background on this problem. Here's my original message concerning the problem:
    I have my Airport Router connected to the Internet via DSLcable. I then tie my two computers into the internet via their airport cards. For about 6 months this system has been working just fine. Recently my desktop computer quit listening to the router and can no longer connect to the internet. It shows no signal strength and the name of the network on the Airport is not seen in the "connect to internet" panel. The same Airport works just fine on my LapTop and I am using it right now to get this message off to the internet.
    I have fixed permissions, removed the airport card and cleaned the connector, the antenna plug and removed the system configuration folder from library preferences all to no avail!
    This problem has been hounding me, intermittently, for over a year now What can I do to remedy this??? HELP!!!!
    Dan Page
    Maui, Hawaii
    The suggestion to change channels, that came from this original request, worked but just for a very short time. Now I have to shut down my computer overnight to get connected and then it only lasts for several hours and the connection quits.
    I thought maybe heat was a problem, but the last time it happened I opened the computer and played a large fan right on the card. This did not help. I shut it down for the night and it was fine the next morning for about 2 hours.
    One new data point; if I turn off just the airport on my laptop computer overnight, that will fix the problem for a short time also.
    Still need some help!!!
    Dan

    First, power off both the Time Capsule and AirPort Express.
    Wait a few minutes, then power up the Time Capsule first, and let it run for a few minutes.
    Temporarily, move the AirPort Express to the same room or close proximity to the AirPort Express and power it up.
    If the Express powers up correctly, power it off again and move it approximately half the distance between the Time Capsule and the general area that needs more wireless coverage. Try to minimize obstructions like walls, ceiling, heavy furniture, etc as much as possible. 
    Please report on your results.

  • HT1222 I need some help.... I Have the iPhone 4S and downloaded the new software (6.0) and everything seems great so far except when I try to open a link in safari from a different app (messages, Facebook, ext..) it glitches and won't load. Any advice?

I Have the iPhone 4S and downloaded the new software (6.0) and everything seems great so far except when I try to open a link in safari from a different app (ie..messages, Facebook, ect..) it glitches and won't load. The blue loading bar will just jump back and forth and the page will not load properly if at all....

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

    at the end of iOS6 download,my ipod touch says 'update failed'.i need some help to resolve this problem. thanks

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next connect to iTunes and update via iTunes. Others have had the same problem.

  • Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Tho

    Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???

    thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess. 
    That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
    Either way your welcome and best of luck!

  • I need some help resizing my images on PS6. I am using a mac and have been trying to resize with same resolution and constaining proportions but for some reaseon the smaller resized image appears pizelated.

    I need some help resizing my images on PS6. I am using a mac and have been trying to resize with same resolution and constaining proportions but for some reaseon the smaller resized image appears pizelated. Heres an image of before and after. The first image I use is a JPG 72dpi 1500px x1500px and I want to downsize it to 600x600px same res, but it keeps pixelating, this has never happened before. Any suggestions, thoughts?
    thanks!

    I wouldn't say pixelated; more like blurry.
    Like ConnectedCreative said, what steps are you using? Are you using "bicubic sharper" when resizing down?

  • Ok i have indesign CS6 and all files are stored on a 10.7.5 MAC server.  This just started happening.  When I open a file indesigns is creating a textfile in the same folder?  I need some help on this.

    Ask in the ID forum and be much more specific about your configuration. there could be any number of reasons why manifests, temp files or restore files are created.

  • We have a set of oracle clients running on T5220 zones that need some help

    Greetings all -
    We have a set of oracle clients running on T5220 zones that need some help.
    If, for example, I execute the query "select (all) from dba_objects", trace output reports 90% of the elapsed time spent under "SQLNet message from client".
    Here are OS details for the clients: Solaris 10 5/08 s10s_u5wos_10 SPARC
    Running "uname -a" from the client gives:
    (SunOS bmc-ste-app 5.10 Generic_127127-11 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220)
    Here are OS details for the dataserver: Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2
    Running "uname -a" from the dataserver gives:
    (2.6.18-92.1.6.0.2.el5 #1 SMP Thu Jun 26 17:44:55 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
    The RDBMS is 10.2.0.4
    Again, please note, there is no application in the picture here. We are just running a simple catalog query (select * from dba_objects) from sqlplus. Why the wait on something like this? The wait also occurs when a different query is used (select (all) from SYS.COL$ where rownum < 50000). And it doesn't matter if I used the full client or the instant client. I still get the same high-wait.
    We had thought - maybe this is a network thing - so we put a test client on the same subnet as the dataserver. This helped - but not enough. The wait is still way too high even with firewalls taken out of the equation.
    We've also looked at arraysize, SDU, kernel settings. And we've spent time going over tkprof, truss and sqlnet-tracing.
    Has anyone ever had to solve this HIGH WAIT ON CLIENT issue? Is there a work around or some tweak I'm missing.
    Is anyone configured like we are (linux dataserver, solaris clients)? If so - did you see anything like this?

    Hello,
    We have the exact same issue. Did you ever solve this issue? We have a t5220 and have just upgraded our 11.5.10.2 11i system on it from 9.2.0.8 32-bit sparc to 11.2.0.1 64-bit sparc. Things should be faster but arent, and our consultant has tracked it down to high wait times when the apps tier using forms connects to the database tier on the same box. So even though the t5220 is both server and client, there is something about the client sql connection.through TNS that his having trouble. Thanks for any information. We've also created an S/R with Oracle.
    Note: I am well aware of the other issues with the CMT server series but this particular issue seems independent of the regular / known issues and remains a mystery to us. Other known issues with the CMT servers for SPARC:
