I have an ipod classic (7th generation, i believe) that i am trying to repair for a friend that has become corrupted, but when plugged in goes from corrupted to an error message. how do i fix this?

my friend was recently in a car crash, and since then, he's ipod classic (180gb, 7th generation i think) has been on the fritz. from what he has told me, when plugged in, it says it is corrpted, but then it goes to an error (which i cannot identify right now).any solutions, or do i need to come back with more info?

Well the iPod is supposed to be synced from YOUR iTunes music library, if you used other means to put music on there then the iPod is going to sync to only what's on your itunes music library when you connect it.
You need to put the files into itunes.
Far as your other issues, sounds like the drive is dying.

  • I have created a document in in design but when i print it out the borders are wrong. How do I fix this?

    I have created a document in in design and have put a border around a photo and text box, but when i print it out the border is not even. How do I fix this?
    Barry

    Hello John, Thanks for replying. I have attached the document as a PDF (is this OK). I have been tasked with designing this certificate for my local RSL sub-Branch for our up coming Centenary Of ANZAC commemorations. As most of what I do has been self taught I’m sure there is a simple answer to my problem. I have adobe CS6. This is how I set the document up. I first used the rectangle frame tool then pulled in a photo from Bridge and faded it.I then did the same with the logo. For the text I used the text frame then used the frame tool twice to form the border and adjusted the thickness. Then I set all of the margins and the document to A4  . When the document is printed it shows even borders of 12mm on the top bottom and right side but the left side is 34mm. I hope this makes some sense to you John.
    Kind regards Barry

  • Firefox 11.0/12.0 does not launch and provides no error message, how can I fix this? Windows 7/8

    Running Windows 7 on one partition, and Windows 8 Consumer Preview on another, Firefox does not open for either.
    Firefox crashes upon opening without an error message. I have reinstalled and manually cleared profile information. If I create a new profile, it works until I close and try to relaunch requiring me to make a new profile.
    I have tried removing/reinstalling java as well (just in case), as I had been editing some of the java installation from my Windows 7 partition.
    As I launch the Firefox, if I watch the task manager, Firefox.exe appears for a moment, but disappears almost immediately.
    No files appear in 'C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports' directory with the exception of the 'InstallTime*********' file.
    *Information posted in the "Troubleshooting Information" section below is from the Windows 8 Consumer Preview partition. There are some errors with my display driver not being updated properly, but Firefox -was- working on Windows 8 Consumer Preview until just recently, so I am assuming that is not part of the issue.

    Noah_SUMO,
    Regarding Naomi Internet Filter, I verified that it was -not- something installed (I hadn't heard of it before, but I made sure nevertheless in case it piggybacked on something).
    As far as system restore software, I keep none =x
    Never have, and I change over OS's relatively often (I went from 7 this past fall to 7/Kubuntu/BTLinux, to 8DeveloperPreview/Kubuntu/BTLinux, to overwriting Kubuntu with 7 a few weeks later, overwrote 8DevPrev to 8ConsumerPreview, and then removed both linux partitions and remerged with a fresh install of two separate partitions for 7 and 8 (I help with some OS compatibility/stress testing for a friend's software development company).
    As far as software that monitors or interacts with online connections..
    Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin, Apple Application Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour, Google Chrome (not that it's preferred over FF, just over IE ;]), Java(TM) 7 Update 3, Microsoft Security Essentials, Microsoft Silverlight (I started having issues not long after I installed Silverlight, however I don't feel like this is causing any issue, as I tried removing it and reinstalling everything from scratch, but no luck), Mozilla Firefox 11.0 (x86 en-US)/Mozilla Firefox 12.0 (x86 en-US), Mozilla Maintenance Service, No-IP DUC (tested this and found no difference or ability for it to hinder FF), (previously) Skype 5.8, TortoiseSVN 1.7.5.22551 (32 bit), and WinSCP 4.3.7.
    None of which I've found to have issues with Firefox in the past, as well as FF was working with them until just recently.
    As far as I can tell, automatic updates were disabled for everything (including my OS), and no changes had been made to any of the software, with the exception of I had installed Silverlight, but as mentioned earlier, I didn't find any issues with this.
    Like you say, my best guess at this point would be that there's something funky set up with my partitions, and so I may just do another fresh wipe and try again (it just takes forever to get everything installed that I need for school, so I'll probably just wait it out for a while).
    The only reason in which I would go against it being a partition setup issue, is that it -was- working. However, I do recognize that something could have come up after a while (not sure how, but I don't doubt it).
    I hadn't thought about downgrading past 11, but it's definitely worth a shot, and I'm more than willing to try. once I'm done with stuff today I'll give it a shot and post the results here.
    Thanks so much for your suggestions.

  • MB Pro tries to connect to Time Capsule when away from home network resulting in annoying error message - how do I fix this?

    I have a 13" MB Pro late 2011 model running Mountain Lion with 2.5 ghz and 8 GB ram. I have a TC setup at home as wireless network and my phones, ipads, PCs, and MB Pro all connect to it with no problem. The problem is when I leave home and connect to another wireless network my MB Pro tries to connect to the TC about every 15 seconds and a message pops up saying it could not connect to the server "Time Capsule" and it forces me to click ok. As you can imagine, clicking ok every 15 seconds makes it impossible to use the computer. I have tried turning off time machine but it makes no difference.
    I have tried to read other posts and could not find the answer. Only reason I state this is because I once asked a question and there was another post out there and several got mad at me. I'm just trying to figure this out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • HT1933 I get emails saying that there is a new show to download, but when I click on download, it doesn't work. How do I fix this?

    Long story short. I get emails for my pre-purchased TV shows saying I can download them. I click the button, it downloads into iTunes, and I watch them. Now, this isn't happening. I can purchase and download songs just fine, but when I click on the pre-purchased tv shows, I can't get them to download. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I'm on a macbook air using iTunes 11.0.2 .

    It seems that this is a MAJOR issue with MANY end users experiencing the exact same problem - iTunes 10.5.2.11 Crossfade is completely buggy.  Apple, get it together, seriously...your QA department should all be fired for this.
    Diego, there are numerous threads replicating your problem.
    So far, there are a few work arounds:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3408812?start=0&tstart=0
    One thing to keep in mind, at least what has worked for me: After you make a change to the crossfade timing, you must close out of iTunes and re-open before the new settings take place.
    Crossfade timing = 12 seconds actually equates to about 50 seconds.
    Click the slider, then use your arrow key to tick over about 20 times - this should crossfade your songs approximately 6 seconds before ending.
    Apply, then close out and re-open iTunes...
    Peruse through the link above, there are different approaches.  Maybe one will work for you.

  • My desktop icons won't open but I can open them from the finder thru the dock; how can I fix this? I run 10.5.1

    I run 10.5.1 and I have been getting a blue screen on boot that takes forever before the screen icons pop up...then I can't open them by clicking on them even though I can do so thru the finder in the dock. Any ideas how to fix? I dumped a bunch of stuff my boot drive to free up space...I have aropund 130 out of 160 gig that's available.

    Go to your Applications folder where you have installed these applications that will not open. Right-click, or two-finger tap (if enabled) the application icon. Choose open, and the application will launch. This is a one-time deal, as afterwards, that specific application will launch normally.
    This is an Apple security mechanism. You can override this in System Preferences > General: Allow apps downloaded from: Anywhere. However, it is not set to Anywhere to protect you, and even I do not leave Anywhere permanently enabled. Only for those apps that I know are not in the App Store, and already know have this open behavior.

  • Having Downloaded the camera raw plug in, files from Nikon D800 not recognised. How do I fix this please?

    I have just had a new hard drive in my MacBook Pro and had to reinstall Photoshop CS4. Despite downloading the most recent Camera Raw plug-in Photoshop does not recognise my raw files from my Nikon D 800

    That is correct. The Nikon D800 RAW NEF requires ACR 6.7  or newer and you need at least CS5  to use ACR 6.7.  You need to download the 8.6 DNG convert and create DNG files for NEF files to use CS4. Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras

  • Hard Disk - (3F0) BootDevice not found" Error Message how do i fix this

    Hard Disk - (3F0) BootDevice not found" Error Message

    Sounds like the hard drive has failed and will need to be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If not a retail laptop SATA hard drive can be used. Just be sure to get one of at least equal capacity as the original in order to use Recovery Discs. It can be larger, but not smaller capacity.For instance you have a 320GB hdd now so you could use a 500GB hdd but not a 250GB hdd.

  • I have windows 8 and when i try to burn a disc from itunes, it says error 4310. how do i fix this?

    i need help!

    A 1G iPod Touch cannot be upgraded past iOS 3.1.3.  So if an app you have downloaded in iTunes requires a later version of iOS than 3.1.3, I'm afraid you won't be able to sync or use that app on your device unless you upgrade to a newer device that supports a later version of iOS.

  • My windows default printer is an HP 2015, but when I print anything from Firefox it defaults to Adobe. Can I fix this?

    When I try to print from Firefox, the Adobe PDF printer is pre-selected in the printer dialog box, even though my default windows printer is a laser jet.
    Both printers work just fine, but changing printers every time is a nuisance.
    This happens whenever I print anything on Firefox, including emails.

    Sorry, Firefox doesn't use the Windows "default printer" as the default printer, but rather it uses the last used printer as the "default". That doesn't always happen when the printer involved goes into stand-by and is "offline", from what I have seen on my small LAN.
    Just one of the hundreds of print related Bugs or nuisances in Firefox that I doubt will ever be fixed, until they write all new code for printing

  • I have an ipod classic 6th generation which has a 160gb MK1626GCB HDD in it. This drive has failed so I bought a new one. I don't know how I've managed it but I've ended up with a 160gb MK1634GAL. Can I just get a different ribbon so it fits?

    Hello I hope somebody can help. I have an ipod classic 6th generation which has a 160gb MK1626GCB HDD in it. This drive has failed so I bought a new one. I don't know how I've managed it but I've ended up with a 160gb MK1634GAL. The connectors on the hdds are different on the hdd end but look the same on the mb end. Can I just get a different ribbon so it fits? Ive looked for one and have found a couple of different ones and the seem to be specific to the ipod although I cannot find one specific for the 160g. Can anyone shed some light onto this?

    Your computer is called an iMac.
    Did you turn proxies on?  If so, you should turn them off.
