I have no idea why or what this is asking me to do.... or what it's not doing. SyncServer?

Here are some suggestions for getting the best results from this site.
Create a user profile that accurately reflects the type of hardware you're using and your version of the Mac OS, or include that information in your first message.
Give details of the problem. A statement such as "it doesn't work" conveys no information. If it did work, you wouldn't be here. Instead, you should post something like this: "I did A; I was expecting B, but C happened instead." Include the complete text of any error messages you saw and where you saw them: in an application window, a CrashReporter window, a log, or whatever. Also include the steps you’ve taken yourself, if any, to try to resolve the issue. If the problem is of recent origin, did you make any changes to your setup just before you first noticed it?
Search the discussions for answered questions similar to yours before posting. If you found any relevant information, but it didn't help, include details.
Post in the appropriate discussion area. Usually that means the area for the type of Mac you're using, if the problem is hardware-related, or for the Mac OS version you’re running, if it’s more software-related. Some other Apple technologies have their own discussion areas.
Is the problem reproducible or intermittent? That is, does it always manifest itself when you take a certain action, or only at unpredictable times?

Hi! I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1.3 and I have iTunes 11.1.3.8. on my Windows 8. Now I can't sync my iPhone, because the device is not recognised by iTunes. Somebody have any idea why, or what can I do (except refresh the iPhone software) ?

Strange Files Appear on Desktop and I Have No Idea Why or What They Do.

Hello all,
For the past long while strange '.part' and '.pdf' files started appearing on my desktop and I have no idea why, how, or what they do/are for!
The files are just random strings of letters and numbers sometimes ending in .pdf, sometimes .part, sometimes both. Here is an example:
J0f0IS2p.jpg.part
qtz0MxdS.ai.part
_Z8WxpbN.pdf.part
My uniformed guess thinks it has something to do with Firefox and when I download something. I recently downloaded an Adobe Illustrator file from my email, and 'qtz0MxdS.ai.part' appeared on my desktop. it has an '.ai' in it. The '.pdf' files, I think, appear when I download .pdfs using Firefox.
Does anyone know why this happens and how I can stop it? I dont think/hope its not a serious issue or bug but it does get tedious deleting all these weird files. Thanks for your time!!
Best,
-Reid

They occur when a Web-browser like firefox is the downloading a file. Some Web browsers download files with a different name than change to the real name when the download completes. having these funny names on your desktop means that the download did not complete or the download is presently occurring.
In firefox as you can press: command-j to see downloaded manager

I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me?

Every time I restore my iPhone from iCloud Backup, this apple id SHOWS UP and asking password. But I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me? Could anyone help me to remove it from my Applr ID as it seems somehow its linked to my iCloud Backup. Thank you.

Hi Ralph,
I have received the iPhone 5s from my carrier EE UK. I never had a second hand device as all my previous iPhones received from my carrier. Every time I restore from iCloud backup, first I enter my Apple ID and Password, then it authenticates and goes through next process and updates iCloud settings, right after initial settings then it displayes enter your password where the Apple ID is the metntioned Apple ID and in the bottom it says "Skip this to go next process" or something. I have to press that everytime to skip it, then restore my backup from iCloud and then when I'm in iPhone home it asks me for the password of that mentoned email. So everytime I change the email address to my Apple ID then enter my password that activates my iCloud services and start downloading all the apps I installed.
Its really weird to be honest and I don't know how to remove that email address from that process and seems its there.
N.B. When I had iPhone 4s, Apple Store did replace my iPhone 4s with a new one due to the faulty WiFi.

When I type my email address in the "To:" field, a random name comes up next to it as "Holidays in United States". This just started happening out of the blue and I have no idea why. Does anyone else have any idea?

Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app. I am certain other applications also need this information. Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information. Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1. Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

Illustrator file just won't import, have no idea why

I go to Import the Illustrator file I want to import. I double click it and nothing happens and I have no idea why. I tried exporting them as different pngs for each layer and importing those, nothing happens. I tried exporting it as a .psd and importing those, nothing happens. I'm using After Effects 6.5 and Illustrator CS2. I thought it might be because the colour mode is CMYK, but I changed it to RGB and nothing happened. I tried saving it as Illustrator CS, didn't work.
Will having placed files in the Illustrator file cause this problem? Because I embedded them just in case. The most infuriating thing about this is I swear I've done this a million times before. I don't know what's different this time. I tried importing another Illustrator file and it worked. (it was also CS2, but didn't have any placed files). Oh and I've tried deleting the placed files, saved it and tried importing. Doesn't work.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Depending on the file system you use (FAT 16 on Windows or external drives?), the relative paths stored for the referenced files become too long. This causes a blockage in the operating system which prevents any program from reading or writing to those directories. It's a limitation in the filesystem itself, not the Adobe programs. Only using other filesystems (NTFS, HFS+) would avoid or at least minimize the issues.

Setting up your phone "as new iphone" is covered in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Before you connect to a new PC, make sure that autosync is disabled in Edit/Preferences/Devices, otherwise your phone will be wiped during the following sync.
If you have data on the phone you want to save, back up manually:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing. Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards. Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.
Since changing your iTunes library will erase your phone again, do the same process when you change back to your normal PC.

Links not working on one page, have no idea why!

Hi there.
Can anyone help me? I made a website in iweb and when I uploaded it I noticed a problem on my photo page. I have no idea what is wrong and I have looked at the code and can't see the cause of the problem. Can anyone help me?
This is the page with the error http://www.harley.island-doobsters.co.uk/Photos/Photos.html
Basically the button bones don't work and I have no idea why. They work on every other page and even the other pages in the photo section. I am completely stuck as to why its doing this.
I did another website with a similar set up and it never happened there, which leaves me even more confused. Any help would be much appreciated as its driving me crazy!
Thank you.

Whenever I go to iTunes with my iPod 5th generation 32 gb iPod Touch, running iOS 8.0.2, It tells me that the "Other" category is using up 14.59 gb of data. I have no clue why it says this and I have searched the internet for fixes and none worked.

Whenever I go to iTunes with my iPod 5th generation 32 gb iPod Touch, running iOS 8.0.2, It tells me that the "Other" category is using up 14.59 gb of data. I have no clue why it says this and I have searched the internet for fixes and none worked. I have tried on a windows and a mac and noticed no change. I have tried restoring to a backup but that didn't help. I haven't had time to do a full restore but I will try if the problem persists.

An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?
Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
