I Pod Updater says Operating system - Windows?

I have two computers with I Tunes on both. When I went to update my I pod I got the screen that displayed" windows operating system" - no update needed. How do I correct this since my main computer is a mac and I also have I tunes on a PC as well.

No I meant update the OS on the pod itself, I now see what happened. I now know that the OS must be updated on a Mac if it wasn't I need to restore the settings wipe it and re install the update , I was wondering why it was taking my Mac so long to recognize the I pod. thanks.

    have a question to ask ... I bought, at the time, the update of Adobe Audition CS6, being already in possession of the CS5.5 version. Since I had to redo the operating system (windows 7 professional 64-bit), reistallando program CS6, with the corresponding serial number in my possession, I noticed a malfunction that is:
    importing a musical motif and starting the program, clicking on play, I do not play any pattern or song despite being in operation.
    I reinstalled the program, but without any result. What do I do? Thanks.

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    Have you tried temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software whilst the download is happening ? A number of people on here have had success downloading it after doing so.

    Assuming your computer can handle it, you can go straight to Mountain Lion (10.8) via the App Store.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 will not allow me to open files after I updated my operating system

    I recently updated my operating system with the latest upates. Now, I when I got into Elements and I try to open a file, the window where you normally click the file disappears before I can click anything.  Then I have to force quit because everything is grayed out and I can't click anything.  I have contacted adobe support but they said it is most likely a mac problem becuase the program works fine when I log into another user account. They said to contact Macsupport to check the permission for Adobe products on the current user acount.  Also, some people suggested to turn off the active corners, but that didn't work.  Anyone else have a suggestion?

    Sarah
    I am having the same issue and all since I updated to the Maverick OS (well it seems that way anyway).  I am currently going through the process of repairing permissions, removing other pieces of 'non standard' software on the Mac, uninstalling Elements 11, doing a safe boot and then a download of the package again and trying a completley new install.  If this doesn't work it will be a fresh user account and start again.
    There were some very helpful hints from folks about remmoving other unnecessary software which did help stablise other issues but I still cannot get Element to work.
    You could have alook at these links to see if anything helps with your issues - the last one seems most relevant;

  • Operating System(Windows 7) got corrupted ..!

    Hi all,
    Can someone please help me with my laptop issue ???
    My Laptop Details :
    Product name         :  HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
    Operating System :  Windows 7 Home Premium
    RAM                             :  6GB
    Processor                  :  Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU [email protected](2400MHz)
    Purchase                   :  Decemeber, 2010.
    My Laptop problem :
    My HP-laptop got infected with "virus" ( it says like found 38 virus).
    And because of this virus attack , I was NOT able to open any application , for example say if i try to open "notepad" - then throws a message like " unable to open notepad application, though infected with virus".
    So with this , i can confirm that my laptop was NOT allowing me to open anything because infected with virus.
    Now i have 2 options to go further :
    1) Remove virus , using antivirus removal software ( This i don't have , so NOT attempting to use)
    2) Recover thru recovery option.
    When i purchased this laptop , the laptop contains recovery partition within the laptop , so it's a built-in option.
    Though i was NOT interested to keep that recovery partition in my laptop, I just burned recovery manager into 7 DVDs, and then deleted the partition.
    With this my laptop contains drives like :
     C: drive --> this contains OS related stuff
    D: drive --> this contains my general stuff like songs , movies , etc
    System drive --> 199MB ( not sure what thid contains )
    Now coming to original problem/issue -
    I have planned to use recovery DVDs , to recover to factory state.
    Started with 1st DVD , it went upto 18% and then asked me to insert 2nd DVD.. and this went upto 30%.. now again asked me to insert 3rd DVD.
    With 3rd DVD.. it went upto 40% , and then stopped responding. Nearly I've waited for about 3 hrs.. but NO use.. it's still hanged at 40% only.
    So with 3rd DVD , it got hanged or stopped.
    My doubt - not sure whether my 3rd DVD got corrupted or not , but i don't think so.. because 3rd DVD worked for atleast 10%..
    Finally , I was struck here...
    Not sure what's my next step
    Please help me what I have to do now, like  what steps to take... etc
    How to recover?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Lets start with your providing the complete product name or product number. 
    HP has produced and brought to market perhaps more than 10,000 models of notebooks and desktop PCs over the years. It is difficult to help you if we don't know which one you own and which operating system is installed.
    Method #1: If the notebook will boot into Windows you can retrieve your Product Number by pressing Fn + Esc key. You can also read the Service Tag (if present) attached to the bottom of your notebook\netbook.
    Method #2:
    Remove the battery and look in the compartment where the battery was installed. You should see a printed part number and a product name. Please post one or both of them (with all alphanumeric characters here). If you live outside of North America, it helps us if you post the country of purchase.
    Were you using an antivirus product (free or paid) when this issue happened?
    What was the brand and product name of the Antivirus product?
    Best regards,
    erico

    Apple Mail uses Apple's own PDF viewer, and it's ... well, let's be friendly and say not really up to par. Don't use it for anything else than ascertaining there is *something* in your mail. Then use the free Adobe Reader to view your PDF.

  • Issue updating iPad operating system

    I have been trying to update the operating system on my ipad but each time i do it crashes at the last stage, can anyone help?
    It says the connection is timing out once it is 1% from complete!

    If you are having problems downloading the iPad iOS update and you're getting a network timeout message, then have you tried temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software whilst the download is happening ? A number of people on here have been able to download successfully after doing so.

    My iPad does not automatically update the operating system.how can I accomplish this?

    Your post says you are on iOS 4.3.2.  You need to be at least at iOS 5 to have a "Software Update" capability on your iPad.  Right now, you need to update your iPad using iTunes on your computer.
    Plug your iPad into iTunes (current version: 11.0.4).  Let it sync.  Then choose "Check for Updates" from the iPad's summary page in iTunes.

    1) Unable to get the main part of my touch pad to respond to tapping.  In the control panel we made sure that tapping and tap zone was enable.  Someone said to hold fn & f9 simultaneously but it still doesn't let me tap on the larger main part of touch pad. 
    2) When trying to turn up volume by + sign it makes a alarm sound (PC beep) and as soon as I let go it goes back to where it was.  When using icon in system tray it does the same thing (alarm sounds (PC beep)  and it automatically goes back all the way down). Even going into control panel >sound>speaker >properties to turn up volume does the same thing.  Any help with these two problems would be greatly appreciated.

    ok number 1, try going to ''device manager'' which is found by typing it into the white box when you press the start windows button in the far bottom left corner, the find the device that controls your touchpad... e.g (smart pad etc), it should be easy to find under ''mice and other pointing devices'' then id like you to ''disable'' the device, ignore any messages, and then wait a few seconds, and go back and ''enable'' it, then restart, this should resolve the problem, otherwise its a case that it is damaged, or needs updated drivers or re installing, but try that first...
    Number 2, this is an ongoing problem, and should only last for a few mins until it fixes, if the problem is more serious try this: go to the speaker icon, and right click, then click, ''playback devices'' then the tabs at the top? you see one called ''communications'' well, click that tab, and change the setting to ''do nothing'' see if that resolves it. if not i obviously have more complex solutions, im just giving you thr most common fixes.
