Use Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to put a bootable backup/clone of your internal HD onto a bootable, external FireWire HD.

iPod won't Sync to computer, says 74gb out of 80gb are used -but there's nothing on ipod. How do I restore? Is anyone else familiar with this problem? It had over 25 movies, thousands of songs & hundreds of pictures, and it seems like they're still on there, because 74gb are used out of the 80 but when I turn the ipod on it appears to be at factory, fresh out of the box settings and my computer wont recognise it at all...
For the following suggestion, when you connect the iPod to the PC, and iTunes open up, please close it, before you fix the drive.
Your iPod hardisk filesystem is corrupted, and maybe repaired by using command line, under DOS window.
chkdsk drive: /F
where drive: is the iPod ID D: or E:
You can also try clicking the IPod properties, and run error checking in GUI, tick "fix all error."
If you have access to a Mac, you can use DiskUtility, and run FirstAid to repair the iPod.
Good Luck!
BTW, this problem arise because, iPod did not complete, closing, the Sync process, due to timeout, for Windows systems, I think it is maybe caused by Antivirus, or some other plugins, trying to make windows 7 look like Mac OS X. -
I need to connect I-Mac G5 to HDMI TV, I think I need this: Video Out: mini-VGA (mirror only) to HDMI, where can I buy? Apple Bluewater no help.
VGA is an analog signal HDMI is digital. A simple cable would not work you would need something that converts the analog signal to digital.
A search of VGA to HDMI turned up a few possibilities but nothing specific. In any case the picture on the TV will not be very good given the source.
You should check to see if the TV has a VGA input. Some TV's have a computer connection port and this is usually VGA.

I haven't done an update since 24.0 because my computer is running out of memory. How much MORE memory will I need to get up to version 28.0?
My computer is really old.
It is running out of memory.
I haven't done a firefox update since 24.0 because I think it will explode my computer.
I see that v28.0 takes 200MB.
How much more is this than what is already loaded for my v24.0?
Will it just add the extra pieces, or will it require a free block of 200MB (which my computer does not have)?
I don't want to crash and lockup my computer because I try to install something that is too big for the remaining memory.
Thanks.You should updated to Firefox 28, Firefox updates don't take any new space they just replace the existing files.
There are some things you can do to clean up your hard drive to free up space however, http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?p=21178060 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956324, also uninstall programs you don't use anymore and delete files you don't need anymore.
You should also start saving up for a new machine, Windows XP is being dropped from support by Microsoft in a few days, which means it will no longer be safe to use on the internet. -
My Imac says "you need to restart your computer" after logging out and click on sleep. 10.6.8?
My Imac recently gives a message "you need to restart your computer" after logging out and clicking "sleep". After a few seconds, gray screeen will roll down and give that messasge. I disconnected USB cable from my printer. Today, after turning it on, the log in screen showed then after 2 seconds the gray screen rolled down again and prompted "you need to restart the computer". I've read the apple communities about kernel panics but to no success. I have a 10.6.8, 2.7 ghz, 4GB. This is the error that showed which I reported to apple mutiple times already.

What is going on with this error?It hasn't been acting up since I:
1) Since I unplug my all in one printer with wifi (Hewlett Packard). I barely use the printer and it keeps cleaning out the jets and wasting my **** ink. Plus it'll do a loud self test @ 3:00 in the morning & by this time, I pulled my baseball bat from under the bed and ready to smash some skulls in the office room thinking its a burglar.
But seriously it stop doing it.
This is a late reply but confirmed after 7 months.
Note: I shut down instead of sleep my Imac now because I hardly use it. -
If the battery pack is ruined do you think the computer will turn on if I use the charger
If the battery pack is ruined do you think the computer will still work and turn on if I use the charger
how are you certian the battery is "ruined" ? If water damaged, I wouldnt dare charge it.
Theres a big difference between dead (cycled out, old, dead) and RUINED / damaged/ cracked cells/
If damaged or a cell is broken, I wouldnt dare charge it.
Will it work if the batteries are utterly dead, no. -

Don't think my computer is sleeping-
Hi Guys
Bit of an odd situation. I have my computer quite near to my bed in a little room and so the numerous lights of my system (7 Power LEDs - G5, two monitors, USB hub, speakers and ext. HD and powerboard) illuminate my room to the point that i can't sleep with them ! So i taped most of them up with dark black electrical tape and turn off whatever i can.
My problem is that i don't think my computer is sleeping. Firstly i can hear HD wirr and possibly fans - there so quiet! and secondly i can *wake up* my computer by shaking the mouse - something you shouldn't be able to do. I've unplugged all peripherals including my non apple USB mouse. I've only unmounted and powered down my ext HD due to the position of the cables. The computer still only turns off the monitors and doesn't go to sleep fully. I haven't tried closing all open apps and i don't want that to be the solution as there is not point in my having to close all my programs in order to let my computer sleep.
The only thing i can think of right now is the fact that my computer is the dreaded Late 2004 / Oct 2004 Single Processor 1.8 Ghz G5 post G5 update. Do any other people with this same computer after applying the update have similar problems by any chance? Or is it just my computer? Can someone please think of something else that might be giving my poor little troublesome G5 insomnia ?
Thanks for any replies
DKRPretty obvious but did you check the sleep settings?
Have you tried to manually sleep your mac?
Sleep on a mac is a software/hardware dance where everything must be correct for it to work.
Usb devices (especially card readers) can mess it up. Do you have usb plugged into other devices (monitors, printers, etc.)?
• Mac will not sleep if Applications/processes continuously writing to the Console logs.
Launch Console in Applications/Utilities and check both the console.log and system.log logs for blocks of recurring messages written therein that repeat at high frequency.
Note: the console.log file should open by default when you launch Console.

When synchronizing my iphone4 on the computer it errors out when optimizing the photos and shuts down iTunes. Any idea what to do to get the synch working?
OKay, here is the deal. You cannot change the location of encrypted files nor can you share them with other machines. There is no file server for iTunes so even if you export the movie index from iTunes to an external volume, each time you reboot your computer itunes has to reindex the external drive every time you want to access the files. The second you run your mobile computer without the external drive or try to access the HD movies from another device or another user on the same network, the indexing gets out of synch. The entire process is self defeating regardless. The HD movies are encapsulized by apple to stream to your devices via iCloud and NOT via Cloud. Only your TV can play 1080p. That single file you download from iTunes has mutiple versions of the same video in the capsul, one version for each type of apple device. There are no 1080p apple devices except for the Apple TV. When you buy a movie you are buying a license and not the movie. It's going to get worse with all the new copywrite laws. Already you cant share any apple devices with other itunes accounts. Your airport express just stopped streaming music to all users on the local home sharing Cloud. Only the one user for each device and soon only airplay speakers connected directly to the device. No more passthru via your TV and no more file sharing with other accounts on the same wi-fi. All the ISPs are doing the same thing. And soon everybody will be buying their phones and TV's and iPads from the cabble guy.
Apple has done a poor job of educating the consumer as to the difference between the Cloud and iCloud. They are not the same at all.

will firefox remember my bookmarks after i reset my computer to original factory settings, then reinstall firfox again?
Whatever you are doing I recommend you manually back up your bookmarks. It may then make sense to keep such bookmarks on removable media, or maybe somewhere else: another computer, or even as an attachment to an email.
* see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
Trying to answer your question <br>that possibly depends on what you have in mind when saying <br> ''"If I reset my computer thereby wipeing out firefox brower and then reinstall it later"''
If you restore the computer to the state it was in when bought, you will loose your bookmarks; and I imagine an awful lot of other things will also disappear; whilst all sorts of annoying freebies will probably come back.
If you ordinarily '''reinstall''' Firefox, but do NOT use the delete personal settings (or however it is worded) option, then Firefox will attempt to retain your bookmarks
