I think my restoration freezes at a certain point each time I try

I run on Windows XP and have an Ipod Touch 3rd generation. I had the 3.1.2 OS, and I tried to update to the 3.1.3. version. My ipod fell off my desk and pulled itself free of its cable that keeps it connected to my tower. Because of that, my OS screwed up and needed restoring. So, when I try to do that, it starts all the normal processes. But once the ipod touch's screen changes to the picture of the Apple logo and the first loading bar, the bar stops filling in just a bit into the process, and the process seems to stop without showing any errors or anything.
Is this just a really long process (like days)? Or do I need to do something else?
I've updated tot he latest itunes and have even tried rebooting my computer, but the same problem occurs each time.
Thank you.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
how are you trying to export the slideshow?
Here's how I recommend one get a slideshnow to iDVD: export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Cannot install Creative Cloud desktop app. It just freezes at a certain point.

I have a brand new machine running Windows 8.1. I don't know much about specs, so if you need more information on my setup, please tell me where to find it.
I cannot install the Creative Cloud desktop app. It just freezes at a certain point. I had this problem many months ago. I had a chat with someone from Adobe, and they had no clue what it was. I then called in and the phone was basically passed around from person to person trying to figure out what the issue was. They took over my screen, they tried all of the stuff that I read in the forums. Eventually I asked for the highest up person in the office and that person found a workaround that has been working for all these months.
However, now that I tried to update the Creative Cloud desktop app, the update froze around 40-50% each time, so I uninstalled the Creative Cloud desktop app, then tried to reinstall it. Now I have the same problem that I had many months ago where when I double click on CreativeCloudSet-Up, and it says it's downloading, it freezes very early on and just sits there. No error message, just sits there forever until I kill the process. I can't even cancel it properly.
I have very slow internet. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I've been downloading all the CC apps directly from the internet, but since I'm paying nearly $60 a month, I'd really like to have the CC desktop app. I'm sick of downloading each update manually off of websites.
I have read every thread, empty or packed full of replies, and none of the suggestions seem to help me. Maybe I don't know what I'm doing, but I really don't think that paying $60 a month should require me to fiddle with a bunch of files and cleaners, etc. I can't believe this problem has not been solved yet.
Could it have something to do with my computer? Or is my internet provider blocking something from Adobe? I have no idea and I'm honestly so frustrated. I come home from work everyday and spend the rest of the night trying to fix this issue, and I'm sick of it. I won't call in again, since it was a disaster last time. I was on the line for over 4 hours, and they still didn't properly solve the problem.
I am 100% desperate and tired of this.

Nothing? Is there no solution to my problem? Do I have no other option other than to cancel my subscription? Pirating Adobe's software would cause me a lot less hassle than this, and that's not the way it should be.

Gain control freezes after a certain point (cannot get highlights to 100) with colorwheel mode

I just purchased Adobe CC, (Switching from FCP 7, did not want to upgrade to FCP X). Really loving SpeedGrade (was an Apple color user)
I am using a standard iMAC keyboard and magic mouse (iMAC 27")
In colorwheel mode: After setting the blacks to 0 with the offset wheel, I try to move the gain wheel to the right, to get my highlights to 100. Even when holding shift, I have to click and drag several times to move the pointer. I cannot move it in one motion. Even then, the pointer will literally stop or "freeze" at about the 3 o'clock position. In order to get my highlights to 100, I have to switch to the Editbox mode and scroll the numbers up manually. I cannont do it with the colorwheel mode.
Very frustrating. Any advice?

Thank you so much for your prompt response. After I posted my question, I looked online and found some users had the exact same issue and found the solution. It is in the way you move the mouse:
When clicking on the indicator for a color wheel, my impulse was to move the mouse in a downward circular motion, to mimic the round path of the wheel. This appears to not work and makes the indicator "freeze" after a certain point.
When clicking on the indicator and then moving the mouse laterally, directly to the left or right on a mouse pad (or desk), it moves the color wheel indicator all the way down to either end. When moving the mouse this way, it seems to work. I hope I’m explaining this clearly.
To answer your question, yes the issue was with the Offset and Gamma wheels as well. But since the particular adjustment for these was not as much, I didn't realize it. But the gain adjustment I was doing was more severe, which is why I thought it was just the gain wheel adjustment.
So it appears it was the way you move the mouse to adjust the color wheel - which should be left and right.
I really am enjoying Speedgrade much more than Color. I was a huge Color fan as well and very upset when Apple discontinued it. I am very happy I found SpeedGrade and look forward to learning it more in depth. My next challenge is to find out how to use the SG color wheel controls to mimic curve adjustments.

Youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time, but audio continues.

As it says in the title, most Youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time for me, but the audio continues.
Happens on Firefox, IE and Chrome

This happens mostly because of obsolate drivers.

Each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer. This happened after the latest download, any suggestions?

each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer. This started happening after the latest download and my latest purchase. The latest purchase doesn't show up on my iPod and itunes freezes at synching step 2 on 2. Any suggestions?

You should Reset your iPod, by
1. Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 Secs till the Apple Logo comes ON.
2. Disconnect the sync cable.
3. Check the iPod Welcome screen, select language, go to menu (if you are lucky, your music are still on the iPod.)
if your iPod doesn't show the Welcome screen, bring it to Apple Store.
If the above is okay, (can see Menu but no Music)
4. Close iTunes and Reboot your PC.
5. Start iTunes
6. Connect the iPod to the Sync cable.
7. if iTunes ask to Restore, please do so.
8. Sync your iPod. ( I would advise you to disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus program when doing this.)
Good Luck.

iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause this error. Contact the software manufacturer that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows:How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
I hope this information helps ....
Happy Holidays!

I'm having problems creating a slideshow that I can burn to a DVD. I can see all of the pictures but it goes black at a certain point every time. I'm using iPhoto. I've tried copying it but the same thing happens. Ideas?

I've loaded about 100 photos into a slideshow that I would like to burn into a DVD to share with friends at a 50th birthday celebration. It keeps going black at a certain point but I can see the pictures in the cue. Any ideas on how to correct this and how to burn it to disc easily? Thanks! This is my first time trying to do this.
