I'm at a loss with this.

Alright well, my ipod was frozen for a while so I connect it to my computer, I got the charging sign so I figured I would leave it. I check it again the next day and I have the folder and the exclamation mark sign on there. And I've gone on for hours and hours of trying to fix this, I've tried resetting it, it just goes back to the folder and exclamation mark. I plug it in with the USB and it's not connecting to my computer, does not show it's connected with my computer, or with itunes, and it still shows the folder with the exclamation mark. It won't connect to I don't know how I can update or restore this. I really need some help here.

i have the same model ipod mini (4GB) as the topic starter, just bought it brand new on sunday, but am having pretty much the exact same problem. yesterday it started freezing so i consulted the manual and it said to reset it, so i did. but all that resulted in was the icon of a sick ipod mini showing up (i kinda figured this wasn'ta good thing). so i hook it up to my computer and the apple icon shows up again but the sick ipod icon also reappears, but then I saw the image you recieve when you have a completely drained battery. So i left it to charge during the night but that resulted in no change. are there any other possible recourses?

  • At a total loss with this code...

    So i'm working on this applet for work and im lost. in the end, this will be a cash register type app thats integrated with our web database. as of right now, the code to download an html page works fine when run by itself, independent of the main class. but when the download PageDownload class is called from the sales class (the main class), i get this error:
    register/sales.java [245:1] unreported exception java.lang.Exception; must be caught or declared to be thrown
    pagey.main(null);
    what's my problem?

    Your PageDownload code has no non-static code other than the blank class instantiator. You shouldn't be calling a static method from an instance of the class. You could just as easily say:
    PageDownload.main(null);
    instead of:
    PageDownload pagey = new PageDownload();
    pagey.main(null);
    the PageDownload class needs no instance since it has no object code of any value.
    Re-think the design a bit, the pattern looks bad.
    If your intention for the PageDownload class was to create a singleton then search the tutorials for the proper way to construct singletons, also decide wether or not you need this class to be a singleton.
    Also output some of the error information to help diagnose what exactly is wrong with the URL, ie, try to output the URL, maybe it's blank

  • Im at a serious loss with this new HD install.....

    I dont know what else to do. I recently tried to instala new HD in my computer
    Seagate 500GB SATA II 7200rpm 16mb
    Performance
    Rotational Speed: 7200rpm
    Buffer Size: 16mb
    Transfer Rate
    Serial ATA (G/s): 3.0G/sec
    Average Seek: < 8.5ms
    Average Latency: 4.16ms
    I have received a numerous amount of helpful advice from many member in this forum, and to that I thank all of you but I have still yet to get a resolution to this problem.
    I installed the HD in the bottom bay, booted up Mac, went to disc utility (nothing shows up), went to system pre (nothing there) swaped bays, bootable works in bottom but does not work when new drive is on top bay, only works when I hold down option key to select drive to boot from. Returned that drive, thinking it was the HD that was broke, received a new one today and to my surprise still nothing worked. Please any help would be greatly apprecited and accepted. I reset PMU, NVRAM on the first install but not the second. The original drive I have in there right now is a seagate, can this be causing the conflict? PLEASE ANY HELP

    I am having similar problems with a 7200.9. (500Gb, 3.0 - SataII)
    Tonight I will be setting the jumpers to limit the transfer to 1.5 instead of the drive's 3.0. Hopefully that will alleviate my problems (SBOD after a few minutes in Tiger, pretty much regardless of what I am trying to do).
    I have read in these forums that only part #'s ending in -301 have the SSC enabled by default, but I am not convinced. Seagate support was unable to confirm this. If it's SSC, I think i need a whole new drive. I dont have a PC with a floppy drive to deal with their utility for toggling. I am not aware of a way to disable SSC with the jumpers...in fact I am fairly certain you cannot do it this way.

  • At a loss with basic setup

    I?m at a loss with this whole avs3120 accelerator and the css11503. I thought this would be a seamless integration. Can anyone out there help me because at this point I?m about to give up on this thing. Here?s what I have: an avs 3120, avs 3180 (mgmt), css11503, and two PeopleSoft servers. Everything is directly connected to 6509 so AVS isn?t directly connected to CSS. At the very least, all I want to do is utilize the AVS for the PeopleSoft server. No magic or anything, I just want to see this thing work.
    The url that I want the users to resolve to is http://psftavs.domain.com
    - Which is the ip of the AVS, let?s say 192.168.250.173
    - Currently there?s no application specific configs on the AVS, just the default setting
    - Destination mapping is: default -> 192.168.250.247 PROTOCOL=clientprotocol
    - This is a vip on the CSS that?s pointing to the two servers.
    1) Is my destination mapping correct?
    2) Should my destination mapping from the AVS, be pointing to the server IP addresses?
    3) I don?t have any configs on CSS for this, do I need a redirect statement or something? I don?t want the URL to change.
    I get nothing when I type in the url psftavs.domain.com; however, the vip URL works which is psftprd.domain.com; I basically get my PeopleSoft login page and can log in.
    If you need more information let me know. I have a generic diagram to help out with my layout, not sure if I?m explaining myself correctly.
    Regards,
    Thai

    The detination mapping should point to the server's ip address. On the AVS 3120 appliance, the left-most interface (Ethernet 1) is used for management console connectivity.

  • Clueless with this little bug

    I'm a little loss with this error. I really don't know where to start but, i'll try to give as much information as possible. I'm hoping one of you gurus can shed some light to the topic.
    I have a page where I initially check if the page loaded from a post, with the following code:
    if (request.getMethod().equalsIgnoreCase("POST"))
    now the post is suppose to come from another page. The reason why I check if it's a post, is if in case a user tries to access the page without going through the first page that posts to it, i redirect it
    so the if statement goes with an
    else {
    response.sendRedirect("firstpage.jsp");
    return; }
    if it's a post i continue drawing the page and showing my form. Now there are no problems when I send a post from firstpage.jsp. But the problems arise when I test my code by trying to go straight to the page by typing the address in my browser. I don't get a Java error but a microsoft internal browser error (ie 5 until now). I noticed that the error ocurs while loading an image from my header of the page. If it helps, my header is inlcluded.
    Now I tried commenting the if statement, and everything loaded fine, even if try to go directly to the page by typing the address, but then I don't get to redirect. I'm really at lost here, can someone give any idea what it could be?

    Ok now this is becoming annoying. I mentioned above that I took of the alpha code for my image links and everything worked fine. Well I made a new page and I have similar code. It looks like this:
    if (request.getMethod().equalsIgnoreCase("POST")) {
    // some validations with beans
    if ( valid ) {
    // some bean procedures
    response.sendRedirect("newpage.jsp");
    return; }
    else {
    // display invalid message html embedded }
    the rest is HTML below.
    The microsoft internal error occus when I load my left menu. My left menu is an included jsp file. Basically it checks who the user is and displays the appropriate menu. The POST comes from the same page. I have similar pages with this kind of design and everything runs fine. Does anyone have any idea why I get an error?
    My page is basically divided into 5 parts. The whole page is made of a 3 X 3 table. The first row's columns are merged and the make my header. I include a Header.jsp. In the second row, the first column is the left menu, again another inluded jsp file. The 2nd column in the middle is my body, which contains the code above. The 3rd column is the right menu, which is currently empty. Last row's columns are merged and is the footer with another inluded Footer.jsp file.
    I viewed the source when I got the error, the page seems to break in the middle of my LeftMenu.jsp. I was able to load the menu option, but when I reach the links, the HTML gets cut. I finished loading the header, but haven't loaded the rest of the parts of the page.
    I really hope one of you gurus can point out what I'm doing wrong. I have pages that are the same, and things go fine. I'll go run through the code again, thanks again for all the help.

  • At a loss with phone line and broadband

    Hi,
    First of all, sorry for cross posting this, but as you might gather I'm currently stuck between a rock and a hard place.
    http://community.bt.com/t5/Phones/At-a-loss-with-phone-line/td-p/54639
    I'm not going to repeat everything in that post, just to say when all equipment is unplugged and you get crackles and white noise through the phone, it can not be equipment, no matter how intermittent. Am I correct?
    The main reason for cross posting is around the annoying BRAS IP profile. It seems that for 30mins of static, I get stuck on a 130k profile for 3days. I could cope with the occasional outage or slow down, but 3days is half a week and when you have the recent bad weather, you get 1day of decent profile before the next spat! As a result of this, I would like to see if anyone else in the community has been through similar?
    I will point out that I have been working in IT for 13years, so I like to pretend that I know something about things, but I must say that BT is one of the only companies that I deal with and dealt with that seem insistent on blaming the customer for everything.

    No I'm suggesting the mod team is preferable to calling India ....

    Allbeit I doubt you'll see a profile reset, but even better you may see a lasting resolution, hopefully.    

  • HT4191 My Contacts Journal Professional CRM Journal crashes at the initial seconds of iCloud Migration. Has anybody with this application experience this situation. The developer has been contacted.

    Dear Contacts Journal Support Team,
    Each time i have been trying what you put up for me,i always delete The Application Completely,then go to iTune Apps Store to re-download it. I know the apps store will not give me an old version,that is why i do not use my Mac or iMac to replace the application however this has also been updated on my Macs.
    I reiterated in my message yesterday that,it is not that what you asked me to do is not working or i did not follow your instructions into details. I did follow every steps you stated.
    The end result is that, WHEN IT REACHES DATA MIGRATION,THE SCREEN WILL BE BLACK OR LIGHT BLUE BLACK,WITH A WHITE SCROLLING LINE THREAD ON THE DEVICE SCREEN,MEANING MIGRATION IS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE. THIS WILL MOVE FOR ABOUT 2 or 3SECONDS,AND IT WILL CRASH.
    I have tried this several time,i do not mind starting all over again,i just want it to work with iCloud. We can give you feedback,and i praise your effort for not getting tired to respond. This is a good and real customer service assistance of which i really appreciate.
    My devices are up-to-date,and the application i download is the latest version.
    Please let's makes this application work,there is non like it on The Apps Store. So you should be proud of your work and your innovation which i see as very powerful as well as extremely useful. But when it becomes unworkable it render all my eulogies to your effort meaningless.
    Thanks for contacting me again and i hope you will make it work again. Please forget about my previous DATA,i want to start it NEW. But you can not turn ON &amp; OFF even the iCloud on Contacts Journal.
    Thanks a LOT.

    Thanks. Can you confirm this step:
    - make sure all devices are updated to iOS6.1, and running the latest version of the app (3.3) [you can check if you have the latest version of the app by going to the App Store on your device, then checking the Updates section to see if you see any update for CJournal]
    - Another way to check is when you open CJournal, go to More -> Contact Us -> About page -> it should show the current app version.
    This is very important. If you are running the previous version of the app (3.2.1), then this crash will definitely happen on iOS6.1. You need to upgrade the CJournal app to the latest. After updating the app, you will have to follow the same steps as before, including cleaning up the iCloud database.

    Dear Sir / Madame,
    Thanks for your lengthy information which is highly and diligently consummated and extremely digested.
    All what you indicated in your last mail,i have done it and all efforts is TO NO AVAIL.
    1. It does clean all the devices but at the start of MIGRATION,the application crashes away and off. This has happened at least more than 5 to 7 times on one device. I have got main 2 iPhone 5 main lines,the other lines are subsidiary to my European lines and Dublin. So,i do not on or try to set them at the same time.
    2. Please,kindly see it in this way,look at the year you have released this application,i have not made or bombard  you with this kind of problems.
    3. I am an old man,i love the progress of our younger ones in Technology. It is just a shame i was not born to the computer and application age,it pains me. Because i know i embrace and love Technology,even at this old age. So i can not do anything to destroy your work,i will rather support you for progress so my up spring will also progress in all their discipline. Also remember my vocation as a priest,my position is to encourage,correct and not to destroy another persons efforts and labour.
    Above all,i just finished trying it twice now,at the migration point,it crashes out in few seconds when it comes with that line of migration.
    The time in London now is 03:10 in the morning,this is what i suffer on this application: SLEEPLESS NIGHTS.
    If there is any other one like this out their that can take files,journals,documents,ToDo's like this one. Please let me know,i do not mind how much it will cost me. I just want it to work.
    Thanks and look forward to your response.

    Thanks. We just sent you an email an hour before you sent this one!! It had instructions on how to overcome this particular problem "Cannot sync since another device is syncing at the same time". It doesn't look like you followed those instructions at all.
    This is our detailed feedback, so please read and follow them closely::
    - you can only get this message when you are trying to sync to iCloud with CJournal. It means that something else got stuck while syncing with iCloud before, and it needs you to clean up the iCloud database for CJournal (as previously instructed, and repeated below)
    - there is no hope for us to recover your previous data. The best we can do is to get the app working again with iCloud, by cleaning up your iCloud data for CJournal
    - your old data was previously wiped out when you cleaned up the iCloud database without backing it up. There isn't any chance that we can recover that. Maybe the Apple iCloud engineers can restore that for you (though I doubt it). If they do, then let us know and we can figure something out.
    Meanwhile, follow these instructions for resetting your iCloud data:
    - make sure all devices are updated to iOS6.1, and running the latest version of the app (3.3) [you can check if you have the latest version of the app by going to the App Store on your device, then checking the Updates section to see if you see any update for CJournal]
    - make sure to turn off iCloud sync option in CJournal, on all devices
    - To clean out your iCloud database, you have to go to the Settings app -> iCloud -> Storage and Backup -> Manage Storage -> Documents and Data -> Show All -> look for Contacts Journal. (if you don’t see it, then look for “icloud” with a blank white icon). Here, press the Edit button, then the Delete All button. This will clean out your iCloud database. Note that it will take a few minutes for your data to be deleted from your other devices, and you shouldn’t try syncing any of your devices to iCloud in the meantime.
    - Now restart all your devices by powering them down, then power them back up again.
    - Now, wait 5-10 minutes for the delete to go through
    - On one of your devices, with the latest data, turn on iCloud. If it gives an initial message saying "iCloud data already exists", then press Cancel. It means it hasn't updated from iCloud that you deleted the data. You'll have to open the Settings app and go to the same Show All page again, just so the device tries to connect to iCloud again.  Wait a few minutes before trying to enable iCloud again.
    - After it's done transferring the information to iCloud, wait a few minutes, then connect your 2nd device to iCloud and let it connect with the existing iCloud data. If it gives a message saying "First Time iCloud Sync", then press Cancel.  It means it hasn't detected the data you just uploaded from iCloud yet. Try again in a minute.
    Please follow these instructions closely. Let me know any instruction isn't clear to you.
    Regards.

    Dear Contacts Journal Support,
    I am so disappointed as you have not deem it right to make a follow up enquiry about my problems of which you were aware about all my Troubles.
    I keep you inform of all my efforts with apple iCloud Department and what i was told.
    I did not delete any of my files from Contacts Journal from my iCloud Account as one of my iPhone 4S still contains a 75% of some of my data. This device has been switched off since. Any attempt i made to use iCloud  on contact journal always comes up with a message i have related to you in my former message that: Contacts Journal encounter a SYNC problems from iCloud and that 2 devices can not be Sync at the same time; while all other devices are actually switched off.
    I am sending this Note now as the time limit given to me by iCloud Team will expire tomorrow. As i have said,this application has beautiful features but to make it work and Sync with either iCloud or Dropbox is a problems.
    I mean,about 8 devices can not have these problems at a go while other applications link with either iCloud or Dropbox are working on all these Devices. I can list all these for you if require as apple iCloud Team do check this as well.
    The iCloud restoration you sent me does not work,but i think this has teach me a great lesson as not to rely fully on an application like this anymore. I count my loss,my time and STRESS,i can not but let you know how i feel and my pains,frustrations and disappointments on this application.
    I have been using this application since it has been introduced,i know all the ups and downs,but not like this.
    I hereby appeal to you to sort out this PROBLEMS: "PROBLEM WITH iCloud SYNC: can not sync since another device is syncing at the same time: please wait and try again."
    The iCloud button will not even switched on.
    I look forward to hear from you.

    You can also go through the iCloud reset process again. That should get everything back in order again with iCloud. But there is no way to restore your old data unfortunately, since the Delete All wiped it out.
    Instructions for resetting your iCloud data:
    - make sure all devices are updated to iOS6.1, and running the latest version of the app (3.3)
    - turn off iCloud sync option in CJournal is it is enabled on any device
    - To clean out your iCloud database, you have to go to the Settings app -> iCloud -> Storage and Backup -> Manage Storage -> Documents and Data -> Show All -> look for Contacts Journal.

    Hi,
    Regardless of what Apple technicians say, the simple fact is this:
    - you went and did Delete All for your iCloud data ... now all your iCloud data is gone. There's no way to bring it back. We certainly don't have the power to bring it back; maybe Apple technicians do. Have you asked them about this?
    - your only hope is to restore your device using an iCloud backup, from before you did the Delete All. That might restore your data to a previous state. We sent you this link again: http://apple.stackexchange.com/a/75394/11236
    If the Apple technicians can help you through this process, that would be even better.
    There is honestly nothing we can do at this point. There's no bug to fix. The problem is you did a Delete All of your iCloud data, without making a backup first. If you had a backup of your data, we could be able to help you, but that data is nowhere right now.

    No, not at all,The apple Technicians did run series of Test on both my account and The Application. It was conclusive that the application is not communicating both with devices as well as iCloud Proactively,this is one of The Application i personally rated 5 Stars and both iPad and The iPhone ones i have never made any complaint.
    I gain nothing from spoiling another persons Job and effort. But when something needs to be repair,i think it need to. It crashes on my 4 iPads and all my iPhone series.
    Please apple has the conclusion,you are the one who can fix it. Apparently my screen was shared because they can see through all my efforts since last Night.
    I am very DISAPPOINTED... For now i am looking towards your end to get it fix. Apple policy still remains on Third Party's Application.

    Thanks for the update. We would love to fix the problem for you. Unfortunately, since you deleted all the iCloud data without creating a backup first, there's not much we can do from our end. I wish we had some control over this. The best option really is to look for your iCloud backups, and try to restore your data to your iCloud backup. Did you discuss this with the iCloud technicians from Apple? I'm sure nothing was wrong with their iCloud system per se, but did they focus on recovering your data (after you explained the problem to them in detail)?
    At the moment, the only hope we have is to restore one of your devices from an older iCloud backup. You probably want to do this in the next day or so, otherwise it might get lost. This might have been something that I was hoping an Apple technician would be able to walk you through.

    Hello There,
    i have just finished or apple has just finished with me now,and i was opportune to be attended to by one of apple most senior iCloud Engineer or Technician. We were on this problems for couples of hours,apparently they could detect all my logins through out the night on this application. It was concluded that nothing is wrong with my iCloud account neither with iCloud in general as all my other applications is working fine.
    What this implies now is that they i.e. apple engineers refer me back to you as the developer of this application. The application is not communicating with device as well as to have a good Synchronisation with iCloud.
    They asked me to inform you that i have suffered as an elderly man through out the night and up till now nothing can be done from their end. They want you to look into the application and that    it will be monitor from their end for the next couples of Days as if i or others will get all their Documents stored in the iCloud.
    The Senior Technicians might get inn contact with you if there is NO remedy to this gruelling and gruesome situation that this application has put and expose me to since 17:00 Hour yesterday evening.
    I will hereby advocate for an improvement and utmost adjustment to this BEAUTIFUL APPLICATION. I know it can be made to work without any stress and PLEASE DO IT.

    Hi,
    At this point, I don't think Time Machine backups would help. The only thing that might be possible is if you are backing up your iPhone or iPad to iCloud. You can check this in the Settings app -> iCloud -> Storage and Backup -> is iCloud Backup turned On? It will also show you the Last Backup under the "Backup Now" button.
    If this is on, you can try to restore one of your devices to this backup version. You can follow these instructions: http://apple.stackexchange.com/a/75394/11236
    You might also want to consult an Apple Genius bar if you have an Apple store close-by or if it's convenient for you to do this over the phone.

  • IPhoto & iMovie update not available with this Apple ID

    Hi everyone - I'm at a loss as to how to fix this issue...
    I'm trying to update iPhoto and iMovie from the Mac App Store but I get the following error message:
    Update unavailable with this Apple ID: This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.
    I've read the other threads about the apps being 'linked' to previous Apple IDs so I logged out and back in with an older / previous Apple ID that I had used before but it still wouldn't allow the update to the two apps - in fact the App Store said that the older ID hadn't even been used in the App Store.
    I updated my OS to Yosemite yesterday so I don't know if that's affected anything?
    Really hope someone can help - it's starting to frustrate me!
    Cheers
    Neil

    Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
    Step 1
    A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
    Step 2
    If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, select the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
    If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
    Step 3
    If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
    Step 4
    From the App Store menu bar, select
              Store ▹ View My Account
    Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.

  • At a bit of a loss with a two server set up

    I've been running a single Xserve (G5) for the last 5 years, but now we have just got one of the last new Xserves to become our main server, I want to keep the old server running light duties, but be ready to take over again as the main server if the new one went down for any reason, but with minimum fuss to switch over. I know because the are different models running different OS X server, I can't have anything like IP failover. But I can't figure out the best way to set this up.
    For instance how do you handle port forwarding, would you manually have to go to the router and change all the services to forward to the other server whenever you change? and all the services on the server, I was hoping it would be as simple as turning them back on, but I'm not sure it is because everything is looking for the old server. Just feel in a bit of a muddle.
    On our single G5 it was running the following:
    AFP ( all files stored on Xserve RAID )
    DHCP
    DNS
    iChat
    Open Directory
    Web
    Kerio Connect
    Retrospect
    Rumpus FTP server
    So now with the Intel Xserve I was going to move all the main services to that and just leave Retrospect and Rumpus running on the G5, but have it ready to take over if the Intel goes down.
    But unless I'm missing something that would involve me, plugging the Fiber channel leads from the RAID to other server, moving the User Network home drive from one server to the other, reconfiguring all the services to look for the other server, changing all the Port forwarding on the router to the other server ect…
    Doesn't sound like something that would go smoothly in an emergency

    You're setting up a failover configuration, and an attempt to increase uptime, and this capability involves the particular implementation of and the configuration of each of the services. Not all services allow this. (Google around for previous discussions of failover. Some cases and some services are ease (eg: DNS), and some cases can get gnarly.)
    AFP ( all files stored on Xserve RAID )
    Not shared, though with Xsan and shared SAN access, you can fail over via DNS changes.
    DHCP
    Not shared. Can start another server easily when the active DHCP server fails.
    The ISC DHCP server can do DHCP fail-over, and that can be retrofit onto a Mac OS X Server box with a little effort.
    Given the usual lease times, you will have some time to get the server back online before problems become systemic, or to activate a standby DHCP server.
    DNS
    Can inherently be shared; primary and secondary.
    iChat
    Not shared.
    Open Directory
    Can be shared; primary and replica.
    Web
    Not replicated, though with Xsan and shared SAN access, you can fail over via DNS changes.
    Kerio Connect
    Likely can be clustered and almost certain to allow mail to be queued, but you'd have to check with Kerio for details.
    Retrospect
    Not likely shared. I do not know the details nor status of Xsan support with this package.
    Rumpus FTP server
    Not replicated. Likely with Xsan and shared SAN access, you can probably fail over via DNS changes.
    There have been previous discussions, so some searching might find some insights. Here is [Failover Cluster Possible?|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11812720], for instance.
    Apple had documented [High Availability IP Failover features|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=ServerAdmin/10.5/en/c3fs2 9.html] in earlier Mac OS X Server releases, but most of the documentation has disappeared. (Whether this failover mechanism is considered deprecated with Snow Leopard 10.6, I don't know.) That written, the key pieces of this capability including [failoverd failover daemon |http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPage s/man8/failoverd.8.html] and [heartbeatd heartbeat daemon|http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/M anPages/man8/heartbeatd.8.html%23//apple_ref/doc/man/8/heartbeatd] are still listed, however. And as the documentation for that daemon states +Configuring your nodes to support IP Failover is a non-trivial task and not to be taken lightly! Significant data loss or corruption may result from poorly configured systems.+

  • What is up with this mysterious battery??

    So, I recently asked about a battery which is not charging.... it's plugged in, shows the charging symbol on the screen. I reset the SMC (or whatever) , and after two times, it worked and the battery charged like normal. But now, it's doing the same thing, and after reseting that thing at least 4 or 5 times over the last two days, still the battery is not getting charged. And this time there is a very, very faint green light on the charger. The light on the charger also is staying on even when it is unplugged from the computer.
    Strangely enough, the battery was at 14%. I unplugged it for about 15 seconds to look at the charger, and it went up to 16%. As soon as I plugged it back in, it went to 15%.
    It's really confusing.... the battery is in good quality (except that it's a little bit swollen). Any suggestions how to get it charging again? Apple store is not an option right now, at least for the next month.
    Actually, something bizarre just happened. In the time it took me to write this just now, all of a sudden the amber light goes on, and it shows that it is charging again like normal. Anyone have any idea WHAT ON EARTH is wrong with this battery???
    Here's the info (taken before it started to mysteriously charge again) :

  • Can anyone help me with this problem?

    Okay, here's the deal. My girlfriend's Toshiba laptop fell off her nightstand, and took a 2.5 foot fall to her hard wooden floor. It landed on the right side, which as you all probably know has both the hard drive and DVD drive. Setting aside the fact that it happened, let me explain the dilemma.
    It powers up, but won't boot windows 7. I immedately think the hard drive is f*cked, but I'm not sure. It shows the Toshiba screen for a couple seconds, where you can enter BIOS. After that, it goes to a black screen with a blinking underscore at the top left hand corner. It then stays that way indefinitely, with the underscore eventually going away to where it's nothing but a black screen (but lit up, not black like when it's turned off).
    I am convinced it won't pass POST. However, I'm not sure if it's the hard drive or the DVD drive. Here's why: 
    When I enter BIOS, I tried switching the primary drive check in the Boot tab, to where it checks the DVD drive first. Then when I restarted it, it would give me a message saying "drive failed to boot (dvd drive name here, can't remember off the top of my head)'". Does this mean the DVD drive is now defective, or does it fail to boot because of a lack of connection from the hard drive, which might be defective? If I keep the hard drive set as the primary drive being checked during bootup, I don't get that message.  When I see her again, I will see if I can swap out her hard drive with the one from my laptop, assuming they have the same sockets. 
    I'm wondering, can a defective DVD drive keep a computer from loading the OS, or is it just the hard drive? I'm an amateur when it comes to computers, so these are the questions I don't know the answer to. One other thing to mention, is I disabled the DVD drive in BIOS, and it still wouldn't load windows 7. That's why I'm leaning towards a defective hard drive. 
    But, I'm not certain. I'm at a loss as to which it could be, or if it's even one of the two drives. Any help or other recommended procedures to do an at-home diagnostics check would be greatly appreciated. The model is a Satellite a665. 
    Thanks in advance, I really do appreciate any input!

    Reasons for Drive Failure
    Hard drives are mechanical devices with moving parts, so they are subject to expected wear and tear, and can potentially fail mechanically at any given time. But most manufacturers will label their product with an expected average lifespan (usually provided in total expected number of functioning hours). But if a part is faulty or there are some manufacturing defects, a drive's lifespan can be over in as little as a day. Other factors are primarily external in nature. Power surges can cause drive failure, as can fire or water damage, along with a number of computer viruses. Exposure to high levels of magnetism can disrupt the normal functions of a drive, along with sharp impacts. If dust gets into a drive, it can become the catalyst for an eventual failure.

  • HDV Workflow -- What's wrong with this picture (other than some obvious)

    Hi Powerusers,
    I have a client with a canon XH-A1, they are ingesting via iMovie HD, cutting a rough timeline in iMovie, and then porting to FCP (via drag and drop) for me to finish on. Seems plausible all editing via AIC (apple intermediate codec). Final destination will be SD DVD, WEB, Handheld media, etc. Am I missing something or is this somewhat acceptable (other than loss of timecode) which they aren't concerned about since it's pretty lo-budget.
    Is editing using the AIC horrible (picture looks acceptable). I'm not used to this workflow. I work in DV, SD or DVCPROHD codecs/timelines but am baffled by not being able to ingest directly from Final Cut with this Canon HDV camera, but iMovie has that flexibility (view, start, stop, import) whereas I'm not getting any options other than capture now with FCP.
    Thoughts, criticisms, advice greatly appreciated.
    cheers

    I ended up capturing via FCP using HDV1080i60 easy setup with capture setting working with both Sony HDV over firewire and HDV Firewire Basic.
    Seems like all is working well using this setup. It's far more than the client needs as we'll be downconverting the timeline to SD once complete, but good enough now for edit. HDV is not fun to work with I'll tell ya. Still having some errors with log and capture.

  • What can I do simply  to keep all my previous contents, (own pics, videos, etc.) on my previously authorized iPad on PC, but get a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with a new  iTunes on my new Mac?

    Friends,
    I already had an iPad(1) and its full contents (not only the purchased items, applications from Apple, but my all own pics, videos, songs etc.) is normally syncronized with an authorized PC (Windows) computer.
    Now,  I've bought a new MacBook Air computer, and want to sell my PC. But I don't know how to transfer (or syncronize) all of the contents from my previous iTunes on PC to the new one on the Mac.
    When I connected my iPad to my new MacBook Air, I promted, if I want to change authorization of my iPad to the MacBook.
    But also got a warning, that the new iTunes will delete from my iPad all my previously syncronized items, pics, videos and music, with the previously authorized  iTunes on the previous computer, expect the saved pics from the net.
    What can I do just like that, simply  to keep all my previous contents on my iPad, but have a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with the new  iTunes on my new Mac?
    Thanks a lot for your answer.

    Here are some instructions that I have posted several times that may be helpful to you as they have been to others. You can simply ignore anything that does not apply or that you have already done.
    As Alan stated above - transferring the iTunes library is the best first step. If you can transfer the iTunes library to the Mac, most of this will be unecessary for you to do.
    Very Important ....
    1. Authorize the computer.
    2. Turn off auto sync in iTunes
    3. Transfer purchases
    The text in italics is from the other thread - non italics are my words.
    The following was copied from this thread. This is essentially what you want to accomplish.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your new computer, start iTunes. Click on iTunes. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your computer, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on iTunes / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
    Read this thread and the support links as well. There are apps that you can purchase that will allow you to transfer photos from the iPad to your computer. Look at Photo Transfer App in the App store and you can search for others as well.

    One final note - you may want to leave auto sync turned off - but that is totally up to you. I never did use auto sync.

  • I have purchased a macbook air with 64 gb hard disk. the available space is only 10gb. With this available space, i can't use the system effectively. kindly advise.

    I have purchased a macbook air with 64 gb hard disk. the available space is only 10gb. With this available space, i can't use the system effectively. kindly advise.

    You should have bought one with a larger SSD. You can regain some space by disabling the sleepimage file:
    To disable safe sleep, run the two following commands in Terminal:
    $ sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
    $ sudo nvram "use-nvramrc?"=false
    When done, restart your computer. Now go delete the file "/private/var/vm/sleepimage" to free up some hard drive space. When you put your computer to sleep it, should happen in under five seconds; my MacBook now goes to sleep in two seconds.
    [robg adds: To state the obvious, with safe sleep disabled, a total power loss will wipe out whatever was open on your machine. To enable safe sleep mode again, repeat the above commands, but change hibernatemode 0 on the first line to hibernatemode 3, and =false to =true on the second line. You'll then need to reboot again. Personally, I prefer the safe sleep mode, even with the slower sleep time and hard drive consumption -- even if for no other reason than it's great when changing batteries on a flight.]
    You can also delete unneeded files:
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion's Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.
